He can give, but he can't take .................

This guys been sticking a camera in my face for years. Today, after the cops got themselves into a little bit of a pickle at the anti-Sharon demo, I took plenty of him. Suddenly he got very agitated and tried to get his mates to arrest me.

The cross examination would have been very interesting me thinks:



If he doesn't like it when people take his photo, how the hell does he justify taking other peoples photos without their consent?

Huh?

He's a disgrace to his profession.

And surely it's against police regs to wear your cap back to front, he looks a right nerd.

It's always worth remembering that strategically placed placards and banners are fairly opaque and many people were sensibly employing this tactic to make his job that much harder.

If lots of us had been taking pictures of him, with flashes, last night, I think he might not have had much to show for his work.

Bet he's at the demo outside the Churchill International Hotel, Portman Square at 5.30 tonight. Look out for him and see if you can add him to your rogues gallery.

I got some photos of his mates as well last night, I'll add them later.

feel free to delete the big one, and amalgamate the posts.

I'll try and make sure they're smaller in future.

I've got a picture of Chris Smith leaving the Royal Opera House after a night with Jackie Mason, the comedian who wants to "THROW ALL ARABS OUT OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL" - nice use of lottery money there. And there's the small matter of the 7 coppers they stationed outside the Opera House the whole time that Mr. Smith was inside.

Another one of Ann Widdicombe scuttling away from last nights demo after the coppers learned a little about what democracy looks like,

And then there's a photo of a different police photographer who covered the demo against the genocidal bastard tonight.

What shall I do with them?
