We are photographers not terrorists. London 16-2-2009.

Photographers, amateur and professional, meet outside New Scotland Yard in London

16-2-2009, to exercise their right to take photos on the streets of police officers and buildings in line with their work and hobbies, as new anti-terror law comes into affect today.

Section 76 of the Counter Terrorism Act, which has now become law, could see photographers arrested for doing their job. Section 76 creates a new offence of eliciting, publishing or communicating information about the Armed Forces, intelligence services or police which may be of use to terrorists.

Omagh bomb meeting 'heated'

The families said the meeting had been heated at times,
A meeting between Prime Minister Gordon Brown and the Omagh bomb families has been described as "heated".
They discussed claims in a BBC programme that intelligence agency, GCHQ, did not pass on information that could have helped in the investigation.
Michael Gallagher, who lost his son Aiden in the bombing, said the meeting had been "quite heated" at times.
"We made our views very clear. We felt the Government, the police service had failed the Omagh families," he said.
"In particular the Panorama programme raised questions that we felt Sir Peter and his review didn't answer."
But Mr Gallagher also said the prime minister "was very generous".
"He said that he didn't see any possibility of any criminal prosecutions - he would be prepared to change the law if he felt it would help - but felt that it wouldn't help," he said.
A Northern Ireland Office spokesperson said the prime minister had "listened carefully and said he would reflect on what he had heard".
In January, the Intelligence Services Commissioner, Sir Peter Gibson, said he found no evidence that information held by GCHQ could have prevented the August 1998 bomb.
Twenty-nine people were killed when a Real IRA car bomb exploded in the town.

Eye Spy Magazine

Eye Spy Intelligence Magazine is the world’s only independent publication dedicated to espionage and intelligence. First published in May 2001, the title is now available in 36 countries and read by over 100,000 people worldwide.

Often described as the bridge between ‘officialdom’ and the public, Eye Spy is extremely popular with those who work in intelligence, security, defence and specialist wings of the armed forces. Indeed, it is subscribed to by hundreds of official intelligence agencies, government training academies, military forces and security colleges throughout the world. However, its non-political - visual editorial and easy-reading style ‘demystifies’ the intelligence subject, making it equally as popular with people from all walks of life - including the media. It is a constant provider of a certain type and quantity of information that is not found in any other publication. Readers are assured they will always find something of interest within its 84 full colour pages; whether it’s the inside story of a lengthy government surveillance operation, an interview with a CIA polygraph examiner, MI6’s role behind the assassination of Rasputin, or the tradecraft used by those who ply their trade in the world’s second oldest profession, Eye Spy has become somewhat of a “must have” publication. The title can be found in Barnes and Noble, W. H. Smith, Borders and all good newsagents or subscribed to via Eye Spy.
