Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Anyone else thinking that begging is getting a little out of hand ? Not only are the tissue women always trying it on every morning but now begging on the buses by crack users seems to have developed, I was asked last night in Hackney by someone that appeared to be a professional bus trawler ( on and off quickly) .

What's people's thoughts ? I know it's a tricky subject matter and that it's highly possible that some might be making more money per day than some of us but on the other hand their needs are often greater than ours with such roaring drug addictions or poverty back home.

Perhaps trade not aid ? Maybe the tissue sellers are on to something just like the big issue sellers ? Just because they are organised, does that make them wrong? Maybe the problem is the givers encouraging people to continue a highly painful or crime syndicated faganesque lifestyle ? Maybe the problem is that we don't arrest them and offer an immediate forced detox programme if a serious drug addiction is clearly present which is now beginning to infringe on the happiness of others. Perhaps we need some drugs like heroin and crack on prescription for some very troubled users together with a zero tolerance approach to paying people to beg.

More benefits perhaps and allow the state to make this financial transaction in a more civilised way ?

Perhaps we should just give and be pleased we don't have such a crap job to do.

Or become a begger ourselves, is it a good little earner ? it's an ever popular career move after all.

What to do ?

there's a blast from the 70's. The death wish films - directed by our very own Michael "calm down dear!" Winner. What would have he have said about begging ?  Maybe James needs to watch the speech at the end Magnum Force (Plot: vigilante cops).

(Boom).....a man's got to know his limitations..classic

A few weeks ago he posted his good jokes were wasted here.....

Something has to be done about the drug dealers and beggars. Green lanes is a clean middle class sort of place and we don't want any scum spoiling it all for the rest of us. Trump has the right idea with a wall. Lefty do-gooders aren't invited.

Nice to see you taking an interest in our problems James, particularly since you live in Crouch End ( or is it Muswell Hill ? )

Bet you don't get much of it up there.
