Twenty-three-year-old White, operating in The City for the past five years, was arrested and taken away when he refused to remove items he had on display outside of his store.

Re-emphasizing that he was not selling on the outside, White said: “I have the shoes on the rack on the outside for display. I do not transact any sales on the outside.

“So if I have to remove the items, then I would have to remove the sign as well, as they are all forms of advertising.”"
