Philip Howard (preacher)

Philip Howard (born 1954) is a Liverpudlian street preacher in London's Oxford Circus. He is most famous for using the phrases "Don't be a sinner, be a winner!" and "Don't be a shopaholic robot", and for speaking various sermons into a megaphone or PA system to passers-by.

Howard has been the centre of two court cases related to his preaching. In 2005 he was accused, and later cleared, of harassing a passer-by with directed comments in one of his sermons. On 3 May 2006, Westminster Council applied for an ASBO (Anti Social Behaviour Order) against Howard alleging that his behaviour causes harassment, distress and/or alarm.

Previously (c. early 2000s) Howard could regularly be found preaching in South Kensington along the Exhibition Road.
