"There are a number of moves promoting the requirement of 'ID' cards to
allow photographers to operate in a public place.
It is a fundamental right of a UK citizen to use a camera in a public
place, indeed there is no right to privacy when in a public place.
These moves have developed from paranoia and only promote suspicion
towards genuine people following their hobby or profession."

It's not made clear exactly what moves are afoot, but if you would like to
sign the on-line Gov petition against such restrictions you can do so at:
