to be controversial but found this whilst looking for something else.

The awful weather of late has made me think about homelessness and the thing I like about the Big Issue is that homeless or vulnerably housed people are trying to help themselves.

If this thread is likely to cause World War 3 on here please remove it.

    No problem here Len. Felt guilty the other day as I was in a hell of a hurry and could only manage a 'Sorry, mate' to the bloke I normally get the B.I from as I rushed past him. Unlikely to see him again before Christmas so will donate through this link.
  • No gripe from me either. Always buy a BI when I see a seller.
  • Gave my local BI fella a tenner today the poor fella looked so cold,


    always buy the big issue sometimes i end up with 4 or 5 in a month
  • It beats me why the police/security forces don't put the big issue sellers on the payroll...somebody standing around in all weathers clocking the comings and goings of everybody walking by has to be a terrorist/crime deterrant...

    The BI seller along from Charing Cross is a real character - seems to have a good raport with people and tends to sell a few.
