No. For all the on-going UK media excitement in re paedophilia, this is not
part of it. In case anyone was wondering, the reference is to the 'Bash
Street Kids.' They are, I suppose, something along the lines of the Huntz
Hall/Leo Grocey 'Bowery Boys. Created by cartoonist Leo Baxendale in the
Beano Comic in 1954. They remain a fixture of young British life/culture.
