Big photography gathering in London tomorrow
The “I’m a photographer, not a terrorist” campaign is organising a gathering on London’s trafalgar square on the 22nd of January. The gathering is protest against restrictions on photograpers of certain locations and buildings under the terrorism act.
Following a series of high profile detentions under s44 of the terrorism act including 7 armed police detaining an award winning architectural photographer in the City of London, the arrest of a press photographer covering campaigning santas at City Airport and the stop and search of a BBC photographer at St Pauls Cathedral and many others. PHNAT feels now is the time for a mass turnout of Photographers, professional and amateur to defend our rights and stop the abuse of the terror laws.
