Photographers' rights
One of the things people are finding harder to do, not only in London but in other cities, is to take photographs in public. Officials ignorant of the law - including some police officers, sometimes seize cameras, force people to delete images or worse, even detain them. The only worse scenario is that this type of thing will actually become legal.
It's a small step, but I've signed Adam Jones's petition (you can too, if you're a UK resident or citizen) to ask Downing St to clarify photographers' rights.
Edit: My mate Mike Slocombe at Urban75 has posted a good guide to
Photographers' Rights and the Law. Check it out!
