Great so he has videos where they are nice to him. He's still wasting police time.

There's a difference between public filming and having a YouTube channel dedicated to standing outside police and military installations to purposely film and antagonise.
Some people don't get it!

If they don't rise, he has no interesting content or channel.

As for his covid testing sites visits they are interesting as these centres seem dead, which isn't what we are being told.
He's still creating an utterly pointless situation in the first place.

It also shows that training and police understanding is poor and that guidance on public filming is being ignored.
To what end? What does he actually achieve?

He gets individuals like surveyor101 et al to big him up on the internet, thinking he's some sort of crusader for truth and the meaning of life.....

Reminds me of my nephew when he was about 3, attention seeking.

He's just an annoying prat sticking his nose in where it's not wanted

Surveyor can be a pain but to describe him like this is out of order.

What some of you fundamentally are ignoring is that if they are wrong on something like this and get uppity what else are they doing wrong and getting uppity about? Its about character as much as knowledge. I think many would excuse ignorance if the officer was polite and went to check it out.

In summary, this subject is not going in the exact direction you thought it would and you are upset, because you like to hate the police.

So you're saying that because some officers in a YouTube bait situation aren't behaving exactly as you want, there is a chance that some officers somewhere else in entirely different circumstances might also get something wrong.

Well, we should probably shut down the police service entirely based on this slab of concrete fact.

The squeakiest wheels get the most oil. The significant (as opposed to... insignificant) section of the public will continue to support police actions even when they get it a little wrong.

Again CCTV, dash cams common someone starts filming with a phone and some people lose the plot.


I don't know I have mixed views on some of his vids, this one makes coppers like idiots in my mind! Playing childish games.

As for the covid site non SIA badge wearing goons assaulting and nearly empty covid sites assaulting people outside the fence line of their work area, seems a public service to me.


The police station stuff i don't always agree with his conduct.

I will say I have better things to do that what AB does!

I am not out filming police trying to get a rise out of them.

He said he wasn't anti-Police in the first post though, so I don't know where you're getting that idea from??????

I have a bit of free time tonight, perhaps I'll go and hand around a Covid test site and make a nuisance out of myself and put it in YouTube.

Back on planet earth, I'd rather shove wasps up my arse.

You mean

"To what end? What does he actually achieve?"

What does AB achieve? Well I think one thing he proves is that Police/Security don't understand the law around photography and are unfairly (or unlawfully) stopping people doing photography.

He may achieve other things - like views for his channel - but I am not bothered about that per se.

As I have said, he also achieves something else - highlighting certain people who are power mad.

I wonder what the response would have been if I had started off with a private security guy or a council offer stopping photography. I bet they would have been deemed jobsworths very quickly.


Am I anti Police?

Yes I am anti Police they they make up rules or laws

No I am not anti Police when they are saving my arse

Find me one person on here who says different.

Tell me how you think I thought the thread was going to go?

I didn't expect everyone to agree with me - although I am surprised more people didn't call out the copper in the original video - but then half the people haven't watch the video.

Some, not all, some. I'd also say it's a small minority.

Ive just watched it for the first time. Young officer didnt have much clue what to do. Older cop intervened and went down the camerman is a terrorist, route - without really explaining. It is what it is. Nobody came out of it well

Interesting fact, they don't tell you anything about the fact that these sites are no filming when booking, why not do that and screen the fencing with blackout.


Yet they put signs up and the site on staff act like they are trying to break the enigma code, so you can't film!

Try rocking up in a works vehicle with a fixed and lock dash cam and watch these clowns get very upset!

The site I went to was all masks no windows (down when staff are by) but I have seen sites were staff don't wear masks and PPE and covid safety is not taken seriously.
