Enough of this tom foolery. They banned it in Geneva and they have now banned it in Lausanne as well they should.
It was the same, exact 20 people for the last 10 years who had staked out their spots and it was their job. Literally. They got dropped off in the morning and they were picked up at night. Young boy runners would go around the city center and empty their takings periodically.
Professional begging is a racket and thank God it has been banned in Lausanne. It's embarrassing.
Now if they would only do something about the graffiti which is my other pet peeve.  | | The following 10 users would like to thank TheSpouse for this useful post: | |
