Bournemouth-based hard dance promotion Frenzy has found a clever way of getting round the local council's ban on handing out flyers for its nights in the city centre: it's officially become a religion.
The council's recently-imposed legislation on the matter states the following with regards to the distribution of flyers in the town centre:
The distribution of free printed matter is permitted only with the prior consent of the Council… The legislation does not apply to the distribution of free literature:
-
by or on behalf of a charity within the meaning of the Charities Act 1993 where that literature relates to or is for the benefit of that charity
-
where the distribution is for political purposes
-
by a person who distributes the literature by delivering it into a building or letterbox
-
where the distribution is for the purposes of a religion or belief
