TBF five minutes on that blokes social media profile would suggest why he’s been arrested; he’s even admitted to what certainly sounds like harassment here:



The important bit being “... and I’ve filmed them every time I’ve seen them” - doing that (filming specific people) after being given a harassment warning not to do it would normally result in someone’s arrest.

Is he filming a specific police officer or Essex police in general?

thats not clear - if it’s specific officers and whenever he sees them, then that probably would be harassment

Agreed. If not, then id find the justification for a harrasment warning a bit ropey

Im a law abiding citizen mate I have little to fear from the authorities.

Same as these folk who get all tetchy about tracking software and the Covid vaccine conspiracies im not arsed if the Government know where I am / what I am doing its either working, walking the dog or having a crafty tug whilst the missus is out shopping.

Hardly 007 stuff.

they received a report of someone breaching COVID restrictions, attended and explained what the restrictions were?

Stop posing articles and videos from the internet about incidents involving the police.

There’s always only ever one side of the story told.

Chances are, if somebody has their camera out shouting all kinds about laws they don’t understand, they’ve probably manipulated the situation to cry foul.

The fact they attended her house late at night which got the poor old dear out of bed and warn her of heinous crime, drinking tea at a social distance in a garden. Bit over the top! Not at least scary, thoughts of dead family member would be running through my head if that happened to me.

You've got more chance of being stampeded on by rioting militant protesters than you have of being murdered by the cops in the UK.
