I once read that France has some sort of law about photographing people who don’t want to be included in a picture in a public place. Does the UK have something similar, or is this a “little wolf warrior” misunderstanding what he can demand or do abroad?

> Members of the public and the media do not need a permit to film or photograph in public places and police have no power to stop them filming or photographing incidents or police personnel.

The title of the video is "Police Called To Stop Filming During Piano Livestream".

There are no indications that the people who (very wrongfully) approached them are members of the CCP. They may well be but there's nothing in the video supporting that.

Perhaps it's a kindness. The title otherwise would be 'patriotic Chinese people threaten' ...

They didn't threaten him at all? They (wrongfully) asked him forcefully to stop filming.

I'm not sure that's any better. Imagine assuming every american is CIA, or every russian is FSB.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

that doesn't follow.

they are waving PRC flags, therefore they are 'patriotic'.

but maybe not members of the CCP, as the poster pointed out.
