Smile please; or not
Thousands of professional and amateur photographers have lit up London's Trafalgar Square with their flash bulbs in a protest against the police's "malicious" use of stop and search powers.
The snappers claim officers are routinely using laws designed to foil terror attacks to prevent people taking pictures in public places.

Well I for one am glad to see Britain's standing up for their rights, all too often we sit back and complain but do nothing about it. Given the current situation I understand the need for vigilance but I dont think the Government or Police are right with their approach at all.
Interestingly enough the digital camera market has had a boom; especially this Christmas - so I wonder what their input is? If we can no longer take shots in public places, surely this has an effect on them too!?
Say it loud and proud : WE ARE NOT TERRORISTS, WE ARE CITIZENS!
With or without a camera we demand our rights back. Nanny state Britain has to end.
