We probably have law against it If it's any reassurance, I can confirm that my images of Amber Rudd were accepted. She's PPS to Chancellor George Osborne and Conservative MP for Hastings and Rye so British politicians are fine -just depends on the circumstances as Subman says above. In my case the images were taken at a public event in the street so didn't require accreditation. Regards, David. |
