    Bloody plastic police. The day of the attempted bombing of Glasgow airport I was in London. That night I was walking up whitehall and police were stopping random suspicious looking vehicle and checking them. I made some photos from across the road This idiot community support officer came up and told me I had to ask permission to take someone’s photo.

    “No I don’t”

    “Yes you do”

    “No I don’t.”

    “…people are trying to attack airports and YOU are taking photos!”

    “How does me taking photo make any difference?”

    “….”

    Idiots!
