Following on from the previous post, it seems I might have spoken to soon. The totalitarian society has now arrived with full force; from February 16, if you photograph a police officer in the UK, you can expect up to ten years in jail. Ten years! Read the BJP article here.

I think its about time for the NUJ to organise all its members into a boycott of all Government press calls, then perhaps we might see a shift away from criminalising the press.
