And even sillier, people claiming that it was stopping people going to
Portobello Road market. *Were they seriously claiming that everyone

I did, when I lived in, er, Marylebone.

In any case, the market's main day is Saturday when no charge applies.


Indeed, making the complaint that much more spurious.

I suspect that many people who claim that they've lost business due to
the charge will find that they were losing business anyway.
