Central London CCTV ruled ILLEGAL - ahead of G20 summit

reply to post by arizonascott


Already getting the white wash on the protesters. Wall Street Journal.

Know your G20 Protesters

No witnesses, and please don't inspire the US Sheeple to take action.

I don't think you Londerners will get "false flagged'. Me, I live in the US, but I can't help but feel that the PTB need to sit sometimes.

They won't like it with their rear ends chewed of. Take care ---PC

Doesn't this seem a little suspicious to anyone? I wonder if something big happens during the G20 summit as the so-called "terror alert" will have you believe?

If (god forbid) something happens, there will be much less chance of having any kind of surveillance.

Perhaps if something does happen, people will cry out for yet more CCTV that will never be switched off and higher resolution?

This doesn't seem to have any kind of logic to it, especially when security must be so high

This comes at the same time that the obvious scaremongering propaganda is released about 5 would be bombers at the G20

Five Britons arrested over G20 explosives stunt plan

Plot to disrupt G20 summit follows warnings by police that protesters are planning to bring London to a standstill

I think we need some people from ATS to take a camera just for the purposes of monitoring the situation because I'm pretty sure the police will know damn well that they are not being watched.......... oh wait, it's now illegal to record police officers

So, there will be literally no evidence, and if you somehow come up with any videos or photos of police brutality you'll be labelled a terrorist.

I'll put $500 bucks on nothings going to happen, except the usual
egg and shoe throwing. They will probably have a Anti-Shoe Defence
system in place though, and you'd have to launch from outside of London.


What sort of odds are you going to give me.

I agree with you. And that's Londoners, and the PTB with their rear ends chewed off. Take care ----------------------------------- PC

I'm on no-one's side here. Neither police nor protesters. I work in around the city (delivery-dude). My camera is already charged and packed.

Unfortunately work regard me as a potential trouble maker. Head office sent a memo down yesterday. My immediate superior made a point (albeit in good humour) of highlighting the line that read,

"Do not antagonise any protesters."

Moi?

The DfT said it has not prevented the use of the cameras for any other purposes but added that the cameras need to be upgraded for parking enforcement.

So if that's the case isn't this a storm in a tea cup?

Or would the offices that monitor the cameras be shut down? - they are wireless, presumably they could be accessed by the security.

LOL... Debunked on page 1...

I think they are emulating Obamas Gallows Humor.
Or, they named it that to purposefully rile people up.

This is so typically the "in your face" lying that we have been made to listen to -
and pretend that we don't recognize.
The arrogance of these bast--rds!

They don't want pictures of what happens.
Period.
Hello Nazi England.

Well, regardless of what either sides motives will be, the best thing to do for the protesters would be to bring cameras, lots of em.

Just in case a few rookie riot cops decide the lack of surveillance might allow them to bend the rules a bit.
Same goes for catching protesters who feel the same way.

Footage is always best in the hands of the civilians in my opinion.

There are an estimated 10,000 CCTVs in central London, the vast majority under private control - it's only a few of those in the hands of the authorities which may possibly not be allowed to be used for traffic surveillance purposes.

There will also likely be rather a lot of TV cameras around too.

and anyway, the police have never worried about twatting people around the head infront of cameras before. They can just say "they started it miss" (I've seen it with my own eyes)

Anyone going, read up on effective ways to protect yourself in the event that you find yourself in a riot.

(the "pamphlet" which "anarchists" are said distributing for tomorows protests, as you can see, it says don't fight)

Don't 'listen' to me.

Listen to yourself.

No, it's simply because it's another forum where free speech on politics is not censored or controlled.

Obviously the UK government now finds "political opinion" against government a cause for suspicion. Just look at the arrests reported yesterday.

Anywhere where free speech and free political opinion is permitted will be monitored by HM Gov, I've no doubt many of us have been added to lists already for having "opinions against the state".

If you criticize the government (UK or US) you'll be being watched to some degree on one site or another.

why can they just come up with the real reason why to turn the cams of. it's ridiculous. be clear!!!

but this guy just points out the solution. just get on the streets and get your cams and beer in a glove. have a good night. cheers

Could the problem be that under data protection laws you can ask for any recorded item which includes your image on it, of course this is bound in red tape and you have to have a valid reason, but I assume that saying you where pick pocketed is good enough. Now if 10,000 protesters all did the same then it would be a logistical nightmare for the cops and a win for the protesters. Unless the camera's were off of course.

to reduce possible evidence of police actions taken against protestants.

is that a spelling mistake?

or a reference to Glen Coe?

spelling, sorry for that.

You lot crack me right up.

One minute 'we're the most watched country on the planet OMG its disgraceful'.

Next thing it's 'OMG the police took down all the cameras its disgraceful k thx bai'.

Let me put it in stark terms. They are PARKING enforcement cameras. Get a grip.
