    This bloke is a legend. One Pound Fish, market stall trader. He certainly entertains the good folk of East London with his unique song. Captured on a match day, West Ham v Reading 31st March 2012. Come and have look, one pound fish!

    There's a really sad story to this. The guy who sings this song left England to go back to Pakistan because his student visa was soon to expire. As he breached his visa he has since been denied access to England twice. He left in 2012 to visit family with the intention of apply for a work visa but was denied a final time in 2016. A recent article says that he still lives in Pakistan and would like to one day return to England but feels they won't let him access because of his visa breach in which he claims the music network had mislead him. The visa board denied his visa attempts as they claim they couldn't be sure he would be coming back for a limited stay.
