We had a quad bike riding up and down our path. This is a path and grassy area where children play, walkers with prams, children and parents walk to school. We repeatedly reported it. One day the quad did doughnuts and covered 3 houses including mine with mud , totally covered in thick mud. Nothing done, no officers to be seen over 6 months. Quad bike knocks over officer going to the school and all of a sudden heavy police presence knocking on doors wanting info about quad bikes in the area. Colour of bike, clothes they were wearing , what time of day do they come out. I said check your records it’s all on there, over 60 calls from residents. We said someone was going to be hurt. Then they ask your name when calling to your home. Different standards for them and us.
I think AB hit the nail on the head. Male officer chatting up some paramedics. AB caught them and the paramedic clearly has a fella and doesn't want this video out there for him to see.
Why would she ten sput her face out of the window instead of raising it. If in her job a police officer speaking to her was an issue she would need to find another boyfriend or give up her career / aspirations.

The officer is talking bollocks. If the lady is "alarmed" through her own ignorance of the law, e.g. what a photographer can photograph in public, who owns copyright of the images, who can order that photos are deleted, then she should have been educated in the law and the officer should have backed you up.
Section 5 Public Order Offences need to go. Literally anything can cause alarm. When a police car or an ambulance drives up rapidly behind me, it causes alarm. Should they be arrested. Take Section 5 away and we'll see just how little real crime is resolved by these tyrants.
Deep down he knew that he was wrong, hence the incoherent coplaining followed by ending the conversation when AB was making a valid point that destroyed his argument.
Threatening to arrest someone without legal basis is an extortion , the cop should be reported for committing a crime. The cop is causing me a lot of distress, therefore he should be reported for breaking section 5 as well.

@@ajof9633 Buddy, if being recorded in public disturbs you, then go check yourself into mental hospital and ask them to help you deal with camera phobia. There are 10x times more cameras than people on the streets, every smartphone has 3 to 6 cameras. Once you step out of your apartment, you will be recorded many times and there is nothing you can do about it. Also, there is no law forbidding taking pictures in public. AB's behaviour always was peaceful and lawful. If someone is being disturbed by peaceful behaviour or perceives such behaviour as an interference, he should go check himself into mental hospital, because he is danger to himself or others.
@@ajof9633 what utter and complete tosh, as the same legislation that allows the council and police worn body cameras to operate also apply to private citizens as well! Literally nothing you just wrote was accurate, and you’re a prime example of a person that bases their knowledge on their emotions and not facts..
@@ajof9633The police have no more of a legal right to film than a member of the public does. So by the constable’s logic, if police approach someone with their body-cams recording and that person feels alarmed, harassed or distressed, the police should be arrested under section 5.
Excellent as always AB, we take our hats off to you sir, exposing these clowns for what they are. Apparently now it seems that even although we have laws which say what one can and can't do, we the Police can always tell you otherwise, or that we can make it up as we go along when it suits us. The mistake the female ambulance worker made, was that she kept engaging you. The look on her face, priceless. Evidently whatever 'they' were talking about before wasn't important, perhaps that officer could divert his 'spare time' into fighting real crime. That officer would play the part well in Monty Pythons 'argument clinic sketch'. What a joker.!

I used to be an Ambulance man and i can assure you there is a lot more things to worry about in the job than a silly phone camera ,i would nver complain if some one wanted to film me unless i was on an unofficial coffee break but if that happened wed just move away
I have a friend who is absolutely terrified by clowns, which is apparently not uncommon. These are the clowns with bright clothing and clown painted faces not the ones dressed up as police officers. According to that 'clowns' logic, my friend should be able to call the police and get any 'real clown' she sees in the street (or for that matter on TV) detained on a Section 5 because she definitely would be feeling alarmed and distressed.
A friend of mine is terrified by dogs , all dogs , it's pathetic to watch but very real for him ! Can the Police be called in dog emergency and section 5 administered !@@zikotesh6121
The wording of section 5 is POWERLESS if the individual's conduct is "reasonable". So I think asking the police to remove clowns from the street would not be enforceable unless the clowns are specifically individually targeting you and running up to you etc knowing you hate clowns. AB was putting his camera in the woman's face and so I think it was reasonable for an officer to intervene with words of advice
clearly it depends on the context. Where and when. if your clown was in the high street on a Saturday Afternoon during a carnival type atmosphere juggling or handing out flyers or something then no, if it was at 3am in a deserted street or empty car park (where no reasonable person would expect to see someone dressed as a clown) then clearly yes.
I think the kind of behaviour displayed in the video, over a trivial matter, is indicative of what can occur in more serious situtations, they can dig themselves into a hole, and keep digging, making up and misinterpreting the law. This can lead to wrongful arrests/charges etc. In that sense it is dangerous. Added to that, the police have tremendous powers, permissions and working practices that enable them to compare notes, fabricate notes and facts to support things that were never 'true' or 'just' in the first place. Take the circumstanves around the Hillsborough disaster as an example if you wish, but there have been many many others. Added to that, they have the experience and power to manipulate the investigative processes, to stall them, twist them, and ultimately corrupt them. And even in the situations where it is unavoidable that officers are held to account, they can then retire early etc and get away with it whilst receing full penions etc. I think that type of things is dangerous
The Ambulance lady is someone that really needs to be watched and her behavior looked into further, considering the nature of her job. She became very irrational and unreasonable by repeatedly telling A.B to DELETE THAT VIDEO ! Even hanging out the window as A.B was trying to leave.
Almost certainly she had said something inappropriate and was trying to get it deleted in case she had been overheard. You can bet that if there were cameras with "BBC" on them she would have been saying to her friends later "watch out for me on the news".
Alarmed: 'frightened or concerned that one may be in danger or that something undesirable will happen'. She wasn't alarmed, she just didnt want to be filmed. He's a liar and needs to focus more on doing his job properly instead of attempting his pathetic knight in shining armour farce for the ladies. Under his 'logic', any member of the public can ask him to switch his camera off, they just need to say they're alarmed. Idiot. Well owned AB.
"disorderly behaviour is behaviour that disturbs or interferes, or has the intention to disturb or interfere, with the comfort of others in a public setting," he 100% can arrest AB if that is met. Which it was, if someone keeps filming and that then causes distress after multiple times of being asked not to, It's very weak, but the officer isn't wrong to advise AB that if he keeps doing it, it can be an arrestable offence in that scenario.

One has legal right to do so to protect the public, the other isn't protected by legislation to constantly film while someone feels they are distressed.
She was 'triggered' that's not the same as harassed, alarmed or distressed. If the police officer had explained the rules of public photography to the paramedic she could have realized there was no need to be distressed.
I'm a paramedic. There is a culture in the ambulance service of entitlement from crews. This is, from anecdotal and personal experience, taught in universities. The entitlement taught is usually during scene management and bystanders; often lecturers falsely pro-porting you can DEMAND people to stop filming due to patient safeguarding/consent etc. Poor interaction from her. Massively due to poor education on public filming and consent. Partly fueled by her ego and entitlement. There is never an outcry when BBC ambulance and the Dragon film crew come shoving cameras in the ambulances and stations.
@@zteveh Yeah, just what you want when you're calling 999, worrying about signing a disclaimer. Or worrying how things are going to be portrayed during, what might possibly be, the worst moment of yours, or another, life. It just is morally and ethically corrupt. It's NEVER in the best interest of patients to film their tragedy, it is, however in the interest of BBC viewings and the NWAS/Ambulance service image.
He thought he could role up to him and harass AB and force him to delete the footage just to impress these 2 girls, but he didn't know the person in front of him is a legend and I can say a lawyer too.
The lack of knowledge about the law, displayed by the boy in the police uniform, really destroys any confidence anyone may have in our police. Also, his overconfidence and self assuredness would be laughable if it wasn’t such an important matter when even the police don’t know the law or cant interpret it .
It seems there's no need to know the law if most things you says are blindly accepted and obeyed by the public, and most complaints fall on deaf ears. This is a dangerous mix enabling officers, in the heat of the moment, to interpret laws any which way they like.
It takes up 5hrs for the police to attend a priority call😮So what are they all doing? Apart from Chatting up paramedics, monitoring Tweets on line, and trying to arrest a man that's had an argument with his mate over a Debt.😮 They are Not Even Fit For Purpose.
7:25 So all the other constables turned up to ensure that their colleague was safe. Nothing about keeping the people safe. Always about caring more about the police than the public.
They operate totally illegally breaking the law themselves working to benefit from public via theft by deception working for money not surprising they have to keep an eye out for each other
By turning up to keep their colleagues safe when it’s not necessary (and standing around doing nothing) they’re not able to respond to 999 calls from members of the public, so their actions are directly putting the public in danger.
rule number 1 in every job is keep yourself and colleagues safe first. that's true of fire fighters, police, ambulance, coastguard etc. if you or your colleague is injured you cant help anyone and the situation is made worse. nothing wrong with that at all.
Plod not explaining to the woman that what you were doing was perfectly legal and did not require permission means she will continue to misunderstand the law. Why are we paying him?
Once again a police officer taking those magical 3 words out of context “alarmed harassed or distressed” but it only applies to aggressive or abusive language or behaviour Amazing how uneducated law enforcement officers are about the laws they are meant to enforce Makes for great content as always
True. It's actually 'Serious alarm, harassment or distress'. That does Not mean anyone who takes offence can call the Police under a public order offence.
Please forgive the language....... He was one arrogant little prick " I'm trying to educate you". Sorry AB you should have laughed in his face and walked away. The absolute state of British policing is a joke.......great content and remember everyone 'ALWAYS FILM THE Pi....... POLICE ' 😂
Im not a auditer fan but you AB are 100% brilliant, Ive learnt alot from you. I didnt realise you can actually film in certain areas. I dont hate police but there are many that really do abuse their powers, not all are the same. But i got pulled over for a broken headlight bulb, he was the most arrogant policeman I have ever met. Anyway great work AB and thank you. You are very entertaining. Stay safe and keep up the fun videos and teaching them the rules.
Soon as the cop threatens our true brother AB an does Absolutely sweet nothing to tell the ambulance women you can film if you want then it's corruption to to highest degree.The cop says he's educating AB- What a joke it's impossible to educate a jem When your an oppresser cop.
This is so infuriating that all those police came out to this situation !!!, in the last few weeks I've had my car damaged been physically attacked and a brick through my front door and not one police officer has come out or come to see me or contact me regarding my situation!!! Their an absolute disgrace
They don't give a shit, if was one of their family or friends house they would have been there within the hour. My mate lives in a posh estate, top pig gets his car scratched 4 pig cars door to door enquiries. He got it on his ring doorbell.
Even that doesn't work !!! Our police force in Kent are an absolute disgrace !! AB you need to go and do maidstone, tonbridge and Swanley police they don't care what so ever and seem to favour the criminals rather tan the victims , even with evidence they favour the criminals !! 😞
The Met Police won't turn out for any situation that involves "work". They will not investigate criminal damage, threatening behaviour or any crime where they have to follow-up their intervention. They will turn out to "support" their colleagues whether they need it or not. They will hang around and do nothing but watch any incident. They will talk the hind leg off a donkey rather than get involved in anything that may need follow-up. They will keep themselves safe in their cars and behind huge fences at their stations, but they will not get involved unless it is unavoidable. That is why they are understaffed, They don't need more staff just more sense and a better work ethic.
Nice one AB Hey did you know those digital advertising stations / boards have hidden cameras with facial recognition technology. What a time to be alive
You should make a complaint against that arrogant officer. Completely inappropriate behavior towards a member of the public exercising their freedom of expression.
Thing is what would you think if someone suddenly came up and started filming you though? I’d be suspicious of them doing that. Someone did it to me at work so I asked what site it was going on and he laughed and said it wasn’t, which made me very uncomfortable and wonder why he was filming me. If she doesn’t want to be filmed he should respect that but he seems to like antagonising people
I would not phrase it as over-policed. I would rather say they do not know how to manage and navigate their resources correctly. They will send 7 officers to a disturbance and 1 crew or none to a high priority call sometimes.
That's because the police, especially the thoroughly corrupt Met, have their own agenda which only occasionally corresponds with what the public thinks they should be dealing with.
The legal/criminal definition of harassed alarmed and distressed is at a much higher level than ‘you are doing something that upsets somebody’. You would have to be loud and aggressive of manner to trigger that one.
Paramedics provide a amazing service, if you are alarmed and distressed by a camera in public ,what you must see on a daily attending emergencies must be horrendous ? as for the copper he was trying to be gallant knight in shinning armour trying to impress the paramedic !
It looked to me as if the Police Officer was trying to impress the paramedics with his miss interpretation of section 5 of the criminal justice act. I feel he was assuming that you didn't know this law and you would obey him and go away. If you had done that, he would have felt like such a big man in front of the paramedics. Instead, you made him look the small man that he is! Show this video to his sergeant and make him look even smaller. Best wishes mate......Garry.
Harassment, alarm and distress can cover any interaction where someone's not happy. The uniformed robot is just parroting the insane laws our country has. He's just doing his job. We let these mad laws come into force so it's on us as a society.
Up town in my city centre in Peterborough a couple of weeks ago, rabble everywhere and not a copper in sight all the time we were there! The place is getting like a zoo and no cops there patrolling.
To be fair, the discussion with the big bloke seemed to go quite well. The officers seemed quite calm, he was calm, they interacted well. The fair haired officer was talking to him and I would say weighing him up in a very natural way. I guess they got his details, and it would seem there had been some sort of scuffle, which I would expect a good officer to wish to take an interest in. But the guy was then allowed to go about his business. Purely from my owen observation the guy seemed quite cool, a nice guy.Then Boooooom! the officer chatting up the paramedic made a complete ar#e of himself. Great fodder for AB, hopefully a learning/training opportunity for all officers
well done for exposing the state of Plod these days. Yet more evidence that there is now zero quality control when recruiting cops. I'm amazed that some of them can even read and write.
He just took their side immediately because they are part of the protected class known as Hi-Vis Vest Wearers. Everyone knows that makes them above the mere peons in non neon garb and deserving of special treatment from other Hi-Vissers. The blue line is earning an equal in the neon line.
I remember when growing up in a suburb of Kansas City, whenever there was any kind of traffic stop there would be 4 to 5 more units arrive at the scene.
no, and neither would you or he be, if you just wore a camera around you neck or on your coat. its pointing at people that sets them off, but you all know that. because that's the reaction you are trying to get. you sad bunch of losers.

"disorderly behaviour is behaviour that disturbs or interferes, or has the intention to disturb or interfere, with the comfort of others in a public setting," he 100% can arrest AB if that is met. Which it was, if someone keeps filming and that then causes distress after multiple times of being asked not to, It's very weak, but the officer isn't wrong to advise AB that if he keeps doing it, it can be an arrestable offence in that scenario.
Using council cameras and Police BWV is completely irrelevant when a member of the public is filming. One has legal right to do so to protect the public, the other isn't protected by legislation to constantly film while someone feels they are distressed.
Bigman tried standing up for the ladies 😂
Nowadays, many people cannot read with understanding, but those who cannot also speak with understanding... this is unique
4 bookmakers opposite each other with boarded up windows, 13 year old kids on bikes vaping and loads of police. The state of the modern Britain high street.
Without religion everything is possible. Don't blame nobody
Kids doing wheelies on the public road almost crashing into the police cars. Ffs.
The officer is talking bollocks. If the lady is "alarmed" through her own ignorance of the law, e.g. what a photographer can photograph in public, who owns copyright of the images, who can order that photos are deleted, then she should have been educated in the law and the officer should have backed you up.
Clueless
Police officer showing up for the female paramedics, then realised he was wrong but continued showing himself up 🙄
Section 5 Public Order Offences need to go. Literally anything can cause alarm.
When a police car or an ambulance drives up rapidly behind me, it causes alarm. Should they be arrested.
Take Section 5 away and we'll see just how little real crime is resolved by these tyrants.
THE COP HAS NOW UNFORTUNATELY WALKED AWAY STILL THINKING HES RIGHT
He hated being told what his job entailed!
Deep down he knew that he was wrong, hence the incoherent coplaining followed by ending the conversation when AB was making a valid point that destroyed his argument.
Actually he run away knowing he is wrong 😅
What's your shoulder number? @@minimalist_survival
Because he is right
Threatening to arrest someone without legal basis is an extortion , the cop should be reported for committing a crime.
The cop is causing me a lot of distress, therefore he should be reported for breaking section 5 as well.

@@ajof9633 Buddy, if being recorded in public disturbs you, then go check yourself into mental hospital and ask them to help you deal with camera phobia. There are 10x times more cameras than people on the streets, every smartphone has 3 to 6 cameras. Once you step out of your apartment, you will be recorded many times and there is nothing you can do about it. Also, there is no law forbidding taking pictures in public.
AB's behaviour always was peaceful and lawful. If someone is being disturbed by peaceful behaviour or perceives such behaviour as an interference, he should go check himself into mental hospital, because he is danger to himself or others.
BS we have the right to film public servants in the course 9f their duty,their feelings don't trump our rights
@@ajof9633 what utter and complete tosh, as the same legislation that allows the council and police worn body cameras to operate also apply to private citizens as well!
Literally nothing you just wrote was accurate, and you’re a prime example of a person that bases their knowledge on their emotions and not facts..
@@ajof9633The police have no more of a legal right to film than a member of the public does. So by the constable’s logic, if police approach someone with their body-cams recording and that person feels alarmed, harassed or distressed, the police should be arrested under section 5.
Excellent as always AB, we take our hats off to you sir, exposing these clowns for what they are. Apparently now it seems that even although we have laws which say what one can and can't do, we the Police can always tell you otherwise, or that we can make it up as we go along when it suits us. The mistake the female ambulance worker made, was that she kept engaging you. The look on her face, priceless. Evidently whatever 'they' were talking about before wasn't important, perhaps that officer could divert his 'spare time' into fighting real crime. That officer would play the part well in Monty Pythons 'argument clinic sketch'. What a joker.!
I’m uneducated and I’m a Police Officer for real. It’s the only job I can get where I can contradict myself and the law and at the same time and get away with it.
That officer is disgusting saying about public order section 5.
The amount of police & resources used just to interview a man is ridiculous.
You wouldn't be saying that if one of those guys went bonkers and started stabbing members of the public walking down the street eh eh 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Yes , We are paying for this show , All the time
That copper and paramedic girl definitely hiding something methinks lol 🤣
That police constable made the threat of abusing the public order act section 5 regarding the lawful act of filming in public should be the subject of a civil claim
Absolutely this.
Literally thousands of people chanting death threats in the streets and they do this? What is wrong with the UK police?
I used to be an Ambulance man and i can assure you there is a lot more things to worry about in the job than a silly phone camera ,i would nver complain if some one wanted to film me unless i was on an unofficial coffee break but if that happened wed just move away
She didnt want to be filmed but poked her face further out of window for AB to get her good side lol.
I have a friend who is absolutely terrified by clowns, which is apparently not uncommon. These are the clowns with bright clothing and clown painted faces not the ones dressed up as police officers. According to that 'clowns' logic, my friend should be able to call the police and get any 'real clown' she sees in the street (or for that matter on TV) detained on a Section 5 because she definitely would be feeling alarmed and distressed.
If true, The Police would be arresting each other 🤡👻🕵♂
People feelings can’t incriminate others !.
I'm terrified of clown's, that's a good point.
A friend of mine is terrified by dogs , all dogs , it's pathetic to watch but very real for him ! Can the Police be called in dog emergency and section 5 administered !@@zikotesh6121
The wording of section 5 is POWERLESS if the individual's conduct is "reasonable". So I think asking the police to remove clowns from the street would not be enforceable unless the clowns are specifically individually targeting you and running up to you etc knowing you hate clowns. AB was putting his camera in the woman's face and so I think it was reasonable for an officer to intervene with words of advice
clearly it depends on the context. Where and when. if your clown was in the high street on a Saturday Afternoon during a carnival type atmosphere juggling or handing out flyers or something then no, if it was at 3am in a deserted street or empty car park (where no reasonable person would expect to see someone dressed as a clown) then clearly yes.
Officer thought it’s another public person who doesn’t know the law but his life turned upside down when AB thought his a lesson. Good education
Thanks for educating the idiots of the world AB! Without people like you these idiots can become dangerous! Keep up the good work AB 👍👍👍
They are dangerous because of their ego
Dangerous how?
@@kyamon-wo8iq Google Wayne Couzens!
I think the kind of behaviour displayed in the video, over a trivial matter, is indicative of what can occur in more serious situtations, they can dig themselves into a hole, and keep digging, making up and misinterpreting the law. This can lead to wrongful arrests/charges etc. In that sense it is dangerous. Added to that, the police have tremendous powers, permissions and working practices that enable them to compare notes, fabricate notes and facts to support things that were never 'true' or 'just' in the first place. Take the circumstanves around the Hillsborough disaster as an example if you wish, but there have been many many others. Added to that, they have the experience and power to manipulate the investigative processes, to stall them, twist them, and ultimately corrupt them. And even in the situations where it is unavoidable that officers are held to account, they can then retire early etc and get away with it whilst receing full penions etc. I think that type of things is dangerous
@@Richard-el1gg well said! and when all these proved, ordinary people paying the compensation to the victims of police crime and corruption!
The Ambulance lady is someone that really needs to be watched and her behavior looked into further, considering the nature of her job. She became very irrational and unreasonable by repeatedly telling A.B to DELETE THAT VIDEO ! Even hanging out the window as A.B was trying to leave.
Almost certainly she had said something inappropriate and was trying to get it deleted in case she had been overheard. You can bet that if there were cameras with "BBC" on them she would have been saying to her friends later "watch out for me on the news".
Takes a judge to get that done!
I suggest that I put my hand down the front of her panties and look into what's down there.
I think you have a good point there.
Bet she has an OnlyFans as a side hustle.
Alarmed: 'frightened or concerned that one may be in danger or that something undesirable will happen'. She wasn't alarmed, she just didnt want to be filmed. He's a liar and needs to focus more on doing his job properly instead of attempting his pathetic knight in shining armour farce for the ladies. Under his 'logic', any member of the public can ask him to switch his camera off, they just need to say they're alarmed. Idiot. Well owned AB.
"disorderly behaviour is behaviour that disturbs or interferes, or has the intention to disturb or interfere, with the comfort of others in a public setting," he 100% can arrest AB if that is met.

She was 'triggered' that's not the same as harassed, alarmed or distressed. If the police officer had explained the rules of public photography to the paramedic she could have realized there was no need to be distressed.
I'm a paramedic. There is a culture in the ambulance service of entitlement from crews. This is, from anecdotal and personal experience, taught in universities. The entitlement taught is usually during scene management and bystanders; often lecturers falsely pro-porting you can DEMAND people to stop filming due to patient safeguarding/consent etc.
Poor interaction from her. Massively due to poor education on public filming and consent. Partly fueled by her ego and entitlement.
There is never an outcry when BBC ambulance and the Dragon film crew come shoving cameras in the ambulances and stations.
What I’m sensing from you is that you have a little willy
You just sign the disclaimer of not wanting to be filmed, thats what I did.
@@zteveh Yeah, just what you want when you're calling 999, worrying about signing a disclaimer.
Or worrying how things are going to be portrayed during, what might possibly be, the worst moment of yours, or another, life.
It just is morally and ethically corrupt. It's NEVER in the best interest of patients to film their tragedy, it is, however in the interest of BBC viewings and the NWAS/Ambulance service image.
As usual the bit they conveniently ‘forget’ to mention is that the alarm etc. has to be caused by threatening or abusive language or behaviour.
They leave out "a person of reasonable firmness" too.
Ignorance is the real threat now a days…
Summed up - Police officer makes up law and talks nonsense then runs away when made to look foolish.
He thought he could role up to him and harass AB and force him to delete the footage just to impress these 2 girls, but he didn't know the person in front of him is a legend and I can say a lawyer too.
She must be alarmed, harassed and distressed everywhere she goes because there’s cameras on every street corner 🤣
she probably would, if all the cameras focussed in on her and followed her around. so would you be.
The lack of knowledge about the law, displayed by the boy in the police uniform, really destroys any confidence anyone may have in our police. Also, his overconfidence and self assuredness would be laughable if it wasn’t such an important matter when even the police don’t know the law or cant interpret it .
It seems there's no need to know the law if most things you says are blindly accepted and obeyed by the public, and most complaints fall on deaf ears. This is a dangerous mix enabling officers, in the heat of the moment, to interpret laws any which way they like.
Arnt Ambulance crew just as open to scrutiny as the police IN A PUBLIC SPACE, payed by tax payer and accountable.
It takes up 5hrs for the police to attend a priority call😮So what are they all doing? Apart from Chatting up paramedics, monitoring Tweets on line, and trying to arrest a man that's had an argument with his mate over a Debt.😮 They are Not Even Fit For Purpose.
Never seen a copper eat his own arse so quick...chatting utter nonsense and he knew it 100%..
7:25 So all the other constables turned up to ensure that their colleague was safe. Nothing about keeping the people safe. Always about caring more about the police than the public.
More about but they are having there doenuts and are short staff 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They operate totally illegally breaking the law themselves working to benefit from public via theft by deception working for money not surprising they have to keep an eye out for each other
By turning up to keep their colleagues safe when it’s not necessary (and standing around doing nothing) they’re not able to respond to 999 calls from members of the public, so their actions are directly putting the public in danger.
rule number 1 in every job is keep yourself and colleagues safe first. that's true of fire fighters, police, ambulance, coastguard etc. if you or your colleague is injured you cant help anyone and the situation is made worse. nothing wrong with that at all.
Plod not explaining to the woman that what you were doing was perfectly legal and did not require permission means she will continue to misunderstand the law. Why are we paying him?
You Brits can take that "harassment, alarm, and distress" BS and plant it right up King Charlie's backside.
Once again a police officer taking those magical 3 words out of context “alarmed harassed or distressed” but it only applies to aggressive or abusive language or behaviour
Amazing how uneducated law enforcement officers are about the laws they are meant to enforce
Makes for great content as always
I love the way he counts those 3 words on his fingers as he quotes them, thought we might have an appearance from Dusty Bin at any moment
Another of those 'laws' designed to be applied and enforced in a politically biased manner. Ignore them all!
True. It's actually 'Serious alarm, harassment or distress'. That does Not mean anyone who takes offence can call the Police under a public order offence.
They always say “obviously” and “due to the circumstances”
I bet if I shoved a camera in your fools face it would distress you and don't lie and say it wouldn't because it would
Please forgive the language....... He was one arrogant little prick " I'm trying to educate you". Sorry AB you should have laughed in his face and walked away. The absolute state of British policing is a joke.......great content and remember everyone 'ALWAYS FILM THE Pi....... POLICE ' 😂
Arrogant little prick is an understatement 😂😂
Your language was Perfect 👌😂
Nothing wrong with that language, relatively mild for what I feel like saying!
Def was a little pig
My friend had a broken leg from falling off his bike in the bike park. We waited for 8 hours for an ambulance and police in the cold.
Im not a auditer fan but you AB are 100% brilliant, Ive learnt alot from you. I didnt realise you can actually film in certain areas. I dont hate police but there are many that really do abuse their powers, not all are the same. But i got pulled over for a broken headlight bulb, he was the most arrogant policeman I have ever met. Anyway great work AB and thank you. You are very entertaining.
Stay safe and keep up the fun videos and teaching them the rules.
Soon as the cop threatens our true brother AB an does Absolutely sweet nothing to tell the ambulance women you can film if you want then it's corruption to to highest degree.The cop says he's educating AB- What a joke it's impossible to educate a jem When your an oppresser cop.
This is so infuriating that all those police came out to this situation !!!, in the last few weeks I've had my car damaged been physically attacked and a brick through my front door and not one police officer has come out or come to see me or contact me regarding my situation!!! Their an absolute disgrace
The only way to get a pig response is tell them someone hurt your feelings due to being misgendered.
They don't give a shit, if was one of their family or friends house they would have been there within the hour.
My mate lives in a posh estate, top pig gets his car scratched 4 pig cars door to door enquiries. He got it on his ring doorbell.
Even that doesn't work !!! Our police force in Kent are an absolute disgrace !! AB you need to go and do maidstone, tonbridge and Swanley police they don't care what so ever and seem to favour the criminals rather tan the victims , even with evidence they favour the criminals !! 😞
The Met Police won't turn out for any situation that involves "work". They will not investigate criminal damage, threatening behaviour or any crime where they have to follow-up their intervention.
They will turn out to "support" their colleagues whether they need it or not. They will hang around and do nothing but watch any incident. They will talk the hind leg off a donkey rather than get involved in anything that may need follow-up.
They will keep themselves safe in their cars and behind huge fences at their stations, but they will not get involved unless it is unavoidable.
That is why they are understaffed, They don't need more staff just more sense and a better work ethic.

Don’t worry about people filming you unless your doing something wrong or got something to hide, it’s not a big deal.
It's corporations filming you and selling / misusing your personal data that people should be worried about!
Thing is what would you think if someone suddenly came up and started filming you though? I’d be suspicious of them doing that. Someone did it to me at work so I asked what site it was going on and he laughed and said it wasn’t, which made me very uncomfortable and wonder why he was filming me. If she doesn’t want to be filmed he should respect that but he seems to like antagonising people
AB i love this channel ,your still Morgan freeman / Forest whittiker of the AUDITING world your the Master .
After dealing with that cop am surprised your first stop wasn’t Costa lol good vid AB keep up the good work
The fact that they have the ability to respond in those numbers, for THAT, is 100% clear evidence your society is over-policed.
But lacking in desire to uphold the law
I would not phrase it as over-policed. I would rather say they do not know how to manage and navigate their resources correctly. They will send 7 officers to a disturbance and 1 crew or none to a high priority call sometimes.
That's because the police, especially the thoroughly corrupt Met, have their own agenda which only occasionally corresponds with what the public thinks they should be dealing with.
The legal/criminal definition of harassed alarmed and distressed is at a much higher level than ‘you are doing something that upsets somebody’. You would have to be loud and aggressive of manner to trigger that one.
You have to threaten violence otherwise it’s a unlawful
Paramedics provide a amazing service, if you are alarmed and distressed by a camera in public ,what you must see on a daily attending emergencies must be horrendous ? as for the copper he was trying to be gallant knight in shinning armour trying to impress the paramedic !
That cop is the one that needs educating along with the paramedics !
It looked to me as if the Police Officer was trying to impress the paramedics with his miss interpretation of section 5 of the criminal justice act. I feel he was assuming that you didn't know this law and you would obey him and go away. If you had done that, he would have felt like such a big man in front of the paramedics. Instead, you made him look the small man that he is! Show this video to his sergeant and make him look even smaller. Best wishes mate......Garry.
Nice one mate
"I'm educating you", this guy just has to exert his authority. it's a case of who is educating who. when NOBODY listens, NOBODY learns.
Harassment, alarm and distress can cover any interaction where someone's not happy. The uniformed robot is just parroting the insane laws our country has. He's just doing his job. We let these mad laws come into force so it's on us as a society.
Up town in my city centre in Peterborough a couple of weeks ago, rabble everywhere and not a copper in sight all the time we were there! The place is getting like a zoo and no cops there patrolling.
After your conversation with the clown.. I completely understand why the man earlier was harassed by this clown.
Interesting how everyone apart from those in a uniform are calm and likeable in this video
To be fair, the discussion with the big bloke seemed to go quite well. The officers seemed quite calm, he was calm, they interacted well. The fair haired officer was talking to him and I would say weighing him up in a very natural way. I guess they got his details, and it would seem there had been some sort of scuffle, which I would expect a good officer to wish to take an interest in. But the guy was then allowed to go about his business. Purely from my owen observation the guy seemed quite cool, a nice guy.Then Boooooom! the officer chatting up the paramedic made a complete ar#e of himself. Great fodder for AB, hopefully a learning/training opportunity for all officers
Top comment.

He just took their side immediately because they are part of the protected class known as Hi-Vis Vest Wearers. Everyone knows that makes them above the mere peons in non neon garb and deserving of special treatment from other Hi-Vissers. The blue line is earning an equal in the neon line.

its the officer that needs the education!
You're not wrong there 😊
What would happen if you told the policeman that his body work camera was causing you alarm and distress? Would HE be committing an offence?
This is the exact argument AB should’ve used as it blows the constable’s rationale right out the water.
no, and neither would you or he be, if you just wore a camera around you neck or on your coat. its pointing at people that sets them off, but you all know that. because that's the reaction you are trying to get. you sad bunch of losers.
