Sacked worker banned from every B&Q for life after final customer announcement

A sacked B&Q worker has been banned from every store in the UK - after branding his colleagues 'c****' and declaring 'f**k everyone' in an explosive final customer announcement. Adam Powis filmed himself as he broadcast his foul-mouthed farewell across the hardware giant's branch in Weston-super-Mare.

A viral video shot by the 18-year-old shows him calmly declaring 'this is a customer announcement. I just got sacked and B&Q are c****. F**k everyone. Have a nice day'.

Adam, who admits his heart was racing, then walked away from the desk and left the store for the final time without speaking to stunned staff or customers. The college student claims he was sacked for vaping outside the designated smoking area and says he 'acted irrationally' as he felt other staff had done the same and hadn't lost their jobs.
