FRIDAY WIERDNESS

"Darling we need to talk. London Transport Act violates UN Declaration on Human Rights - Article 19."

So sayeth grafitti scrawled on a hoarding across the road; now erased. Can anyone explain this to me?

Article 19 says: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers." (But, the declaration is not binding.)

Most of the London Transport Act has been repealed. Could this have anything to do with the Public Private Partnership (PPP)? Busking? Grafitti?
