Its been a long time since i visited the UK, but when i was there last, i was working as a motorcycle courier, and very close by was King Cross tube station. Every day outside the same 4 woman would be dropped off in a new Range Rover, two would be handed babies and they would set to work begging, end of the day, back in the Range Rover and off they went. I would see them whenever i was back at base having lunch or doing maintenance on my bike, and if any other beggers or homeless selling "The big issue" set up there, the Range Rover came back, two big men "had a chat" with the competition, relieved them of any earning and sent them on their way. Turns out they were all Romanians and had an organised begging ring operating all over London, the guys at the top were making serious bank.
