Rejected petition affordable access to entertainment

More details

As you may already know, today (1st October 2013) Justin Timberlake pre-leased tickets for his shows in the UK. A standing ticket at the o2 on the 1st April 2014 is being sold for over £120. This is appalling and not uncommon.

This leaves these events of cultural significance completely out of reach for a vast majority of society.

I propose a ceiling of a MAXIMUM price, of £49.50 for these types of tickets to allow everyone the chance to participate.
