It's often said that in the U.S. you can do anything until someone says you can't, but in Britain you can't do anything until someone says you can.

When we give up our freedoms and liberties for the sake of security we lose both.

Rod, why have you not got your own TV Channel? Such a professional approach to Little Britain.

I often find that a good firm "Piss off" often works well.

How little freedom we have, highlighted by people like Ron Liddle,

[Alfredromeothatsme]

That was so funny when he put that fluoro top on to guide people onto the the other side of the pavement. We are really all just sheep aren't we!

I like this stuff. Why am I only getting it fed to me by YouTube six years later?

[davidhume]

Rod Liddle is my favourite journalist. I admire his ability to laugh at current madnesses, while I risk heart attacks when i consider the same things. I hope that they (those in power) never succeed in censoring him; if they do I will leave the country.

Westminster we own it, anything public we own it so yes we can film in any public place its ours understand dummies.

This is why I love the work of auditors, I know some are OTT but it's essential work IMO.

Why is gardener worried about permission ? Is he KGB ?

At the end of the video the Police/PCSO have no jurisdiction in this mater. It is a civil mater not criminal. They should only be there to make sure that they "Keep the Peace".

[pdriwsteve]

Even more relevant today, plus you would need a mask or risk being arrested

[lewispeart]

you do not need permission to film on public property PERIOD. If you read legislation, it is in an of itself unlawful to restrict the filming of anyone on public space for any reason.

[hughcaskey]

Keep up the good work rod follow your column all the time

[DieFlabbergast]

This stuff is an appalling attack on the rights of the public, but don't blame these people in yellow jackets. They're called "jobsworths" for a good reason. You can't expect them to risk losing their jobs just by doing what they've been told to do. Blame the arseholes in management who make these stupid, fascistic rules.

did notice in your video you had a normal staff member if he said he was security ask for his SIA licence by law he has to have it on show the same as the police and if he doesn't have one it's a £5, 000 fine and 6 months in prison

[JYNOT]

5.35, if he's a 'British national' then I'm from mars!

[lnixon]
