Today, the Counter-Terrorism Act 2008 comes into force, potentially making it a crime to take a picture of members of Her Majesty's armed forces, including constables. The National Union of Journalists has called for photographers to make their voices heard at a media event on 16 February in front of New Scotland Yard. The plan is simple, turn up with your camera and exercise your democratic right to take a photograph in a public place.
BJP's news editor Olivier Laurent is there to report live on the event. Follow the latest developments thanks to our Twitter feed here or on Twitter.com/1854.
