Eton smokers

Adding (at least for me) to the already large amount of slang covering the smoking of cannabis, leader of the British Conservative party and potential future Prime Minister David Cameron has had his teenage past catch up with him --

A friend said the Tory leader and other schoolboys had been “snitched on” by pupils who had been dealing in the drug. A total of seven pupils were expelled following police inquiries, which are said to have included a search of pupils’ rooms by a drugs squad.

Cameron’s confession of smoking what the friend called a “spliff” saved him from greater punishment, despite his refusal to tell masters who else was involved.
