Thread Name: Busking is begging?
Subject: RE: Busking is begging?
If The London Underground have the audacity to charge six pounds for a ONE day travel card (in New York $21 can buy you the equivalent to last a WEEK) then I will unashamedly have the audacity and God-given right to busk ON a tube train. Then LU show a little more brassneck by "legalising" busking at certain spots where you have to be there at a certain time (surely the whole idea of being a busker is to do it at your leisure), earn next to nothing for two hours whilst all you are ACTUALLY doing is standing around being an advert for Carling lager. So you have a choice. Either do it yourself, FOR yourself. Or you promote alcoholism, binge drinking and not forgetting being anti-Islamic. Muslims are excluded from this "scheme" because their religion forbids alcohol consumption and the promotion of it.

Oops did I leave out this tiny fact?
