"An LBC journalist and two independent photographer/filmmakers were arrested at the Just Stop Oil protest on the M25. It seems the police refused to check her press pass, arrested her and kept her in a cell for hours before letting her go without charge. Who thinks that is acceptable and why?" Was this person getting in the way of the police making an arrest? IF so then it was justified as the press should not get in the way of the police when they're in the middle of a dangerous task, like subduing someone or arresting them. | |||

It is awful how these protestors actions are now impacting innocent people. The police got it wrong, they will be held accountable, lessons and all that, but I'm confident that there was no malice. | |||

"From reading . She was yes arrested and did show her press pass. But wether correct or not.? It appears she was at scene of protest before police arrived . Police thought given info to be there by stop oil. ? She said read on stop oil website which gantry / junction was going to be protest at. " It would seem there may have been protestors acting as journalists at other protests, to get close and film the protest. This journalist has been impacted by the protesters nefarious actions. | |||

But that doesn't answer the bit about protestors supposedly acting as journalists. | |||

"I view videos from journalists being arrested for filming in public everyday, I just viewed a video where an auditor was stopped and searched under the terror act for filming in public. so this news is not new to me. the journalist who was arrested has been interviewed on talk tv which is now on YouTube. " Probably goes with the territory, maybe when it was a film crew and big cameras it was more obvious.... | |||
