Chuggers, Newbury loves them? Options

Chuggers in Newbury...

What is it with Chuggers in Newbury, well what makes things worse is that WH Smith's are now in cahoots with some of the barstewards, as they were just outside the store (doors next to the coffee shop) and NOW they have moved the ****ers inside the store, so you now get accosted as soon as you go in to buy a magazine or something.

Me personally I have got an idea that the council should trial, well I happen to think it is a BRILLIANT idea, which would be simple and effective against CHUGGERS.

I think they should put markings on the ground/road surface. They should paint along oblong box, say about 75 meters in length and it should allow leave a gap of say 3 meters on either side of the street.

The chuggers should then ONLY be allowed to approach or try and talk to shoppers/people who are inside that area. They should be banned from approaching anybody who is not inside that area.

That would be an easy thing to trial and West Berkshire Council/Newbury Town Council would probably get some good publicity from being the first to try it.

But hey, I know my place and what we think is not important to our councils.
