Sorry, I was referring to the ones inside the petrol station not on the forecourt.
Likewise with cameras in banks etc.
Russ, do you really believe that if the police had started arresting people there and then, it would have been all calm and happy and the rest of the world would have been fine with it?
Surely you can see it's much better to obtain as much evidence as possible (better to catch someone breaking the law than prevent them doing it and leaving them free to break it when the police aren't around) and make arrests at a later date, each one leading to more (such as with the scarf wearing ones).
What interested me was one plackard mentioned 3/11, now is that the 11th March, or is that the 3rd November?
