I usually give a quid ot two to an older chap on my route to work. He's a nice guy and I do feel very sorry about his situation.

Banksy Show/Event Today, by Bill Hicks on Oct 4, 2018 9:41:31 GMT 1, People who are legally homeless are “rarely” on the streets, according to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. We don’t have definitive statistics for how many people are sleeping rough.
In England the number of people sleeping rough is a snapshot taken in autumn each year. Councils count or estimate the number of people sleeping rough in their area. Most authorities talk to local agencies and give an estimate.
So the figures we’re using here are only very rough estimates.
Last year, around 4,800 people were estimated to be sleeping rough in England. This is 15% higher than in 2016, and more than double the estimate of 1,800 for 2010.

Banksy Show/Event Today, by skAcid on Oct 4, 2018 9:46:14 GMT 1, Just spotted a large heap of what looked like canvases under a sleeping bag up in Angel and the same at Old St. Unluckily I was on a bus!
Good luck everyone.

Excuse me if I don't rush out to start asking homeless people about cheap Banksy canvases.

Is Banksy or one of his friends going to be standing beside a homeless person with a large bundle of canvases under his arm trying to look casual?

Yes, this seems all unlikely to me too.
I am off to the Peckham Rock topic. See you there!

Shouldn't you give money to a homeless person because you feel sorry for them, not because you hope to get a Banksy in return?

You shouldn’t need an incentive to give a homeless person some change. This thread is just another linecaster. Trying to draw out the mugs.

You're incredibly in the know for a guy who's got 13 posts under his belt. Stop wasting people's time man. Giving should never be conditional.

What does post count have to do with knowledge? Don’t get your logic by any means.

Joe's been on here for a loooooong time (longer than me). I've seen some of the Banksys he's owned and IMHO he is more likely to be in the know than most.
He may just have opened a new account for whatever reason. However, someone could also be posing as him because that's the world we now live in...

I wouldn’t suggest pity is a constructive emotion, perhaps compassion? But anyway, yes clearly you shouldn’t need a reason but some of the replies here would seem to suggest otherwise .

Banksy Show/Event Today, by shinkaiser on Oct 4, 2018 14:10:07 GMT 1, whether this is true or not, I had a free lunch break so had a quick whip around. Concentrated my search to areas around tube stations:
London Bridge - first look found one guy asleep under a duvet, didn't look like he was about to hand anything out
Old Street - not many homeless about, one guy who didn't look like he had canvases or anything. Another woman close to the station. Gave her some change and she thanked me.
Angel - No homeless whatsoever. This talk about Canvases under sleeping bags is bullshit.
Back to London Bridge for a second look around, found a few more homeless but no way did they have something to give away.

homeless people may be home-less but not stupid....
second thought: these homeless people are hired banksy people...this would defend the whole purpose. seems to me that this is BS.....
but I may be wrong.
