Thought you might like to know/do something about this...
Signing up to ask the Prime Minister to Stop proposed restrictions
regarding photography in public places
The UK Govt are about to propose restrictions on photography in
public places which could make street photography and documentary
photography against the law. There's a petition on the Downing St
website against the Government's proposals to restrict the use of
photography in public areas. Sign up to the petition now......
