Public opinion goes a long way if you tap into it.
And I'm aware of
A public opinion is a mighty, mighty weapon.
Well, there's well-known buskers that basically do not perform on the street anymore because they can't deal with the red tape of it all.
And then there's a quite man there, my own kind of age, down...
Paul Street area.
And there's a particular shop down here who put in complaints to him because he arrived 10 minutes early before the time was allocated.
And the reason he did was he knew the forecast was going to be bad in an hour's time.
So the complaint went then.
He has a summons as well.
It is, but I'll give you an example there.
Do they have the right to even make such laws?
There was enough with busking, right?
There was already laws there.
Already, that can be implemented against the busker without having to bring in bylaws.
An example would be, I know it's a little bit different, but the Dillon case of 2007 was a begging case, right?
Where we know some people think it's the same as busking, but with busking...
busking has never been illegal to do in Ireland.
Whereas, obviously, up to 2007, begging has been.
But that went to the High Court, and the Dillon case, the judgment was a man has the right to express himself and ask for money and so forth.
