Comment on can my image be recorded in British airports by tv camera crews even if I don't consent?

They can’t broadcast your image without consent.

My friend is a photographer and they have to get people to sign a form before they can use any photos with people in.

You’ll often see people with their faces blurred in these shows and that’s why.

If the police have body cams you will be recorded but again they can’t broadcast this.

Stop and question: police powers

A police officer might stop you and ask:

what your name is what you’re doing in the area where you’re going

You don’t have to stop or answer any questions. If you don’t and there’s no other reason to suspect you, then this alone can’t be used as a reason to search or arrest you. Stop and search: police powers

A police officer has powers to stop and search you if they have ‘reasonable grounds’ to suspect you’re carrying:

illegal drugs a weapon stolen property something which could be used to commit a crime, such as a crowbar

You can only be stopped and searched without reasonable grounds if it has been approved by a senior police officer. This can happen if it is suspected that:

serious violence could take place you’re carrying a weapon or have used one you’re in a specific location or area
