“Officers and community support officers are reminded that we should not be stopping and searching people for taking photos. Unnecessarily restricting photography, whether from the casual tourist or professional, is unacceptable.” [Email sent by ACPO to chief constables, reported in the Independent]

Really? How astonishing and pleasant to be able to mention a positive development in an area where there has been so much abuse, complacency and denial. Now let’s see if baby cops take a blind bit of notice.

Yeah, but that clip is way old - they showed it to us in training at least a year ago (as how NOT to do things, I stress). He's left the police, too.

To be fair, that clip is way old - they showed it to us about a year ago in training (as how not to do things), and that bloke had left/been kicked out of the service by that point.

To be fair, this clip is way old - we were shown it in training about a year ago (as an example of how not to do things). That PCSO left the service ages ago.

On the other hand, I gather, the clip in question is way old - your training included being shown it (as an illustration of how not to behave), and the officer under discussion had faced the axe some considerable time previously.

Ha ha ha! Is that CLEAR enough for you? (I loved that post!)
