One of the first things I noticed about London when I first arrived here a few years ago, was the incredible amount of cctv cameras scattered around- almost one on every street corner. In fact, I think it’s true to say that there are more surveillance cameras in London than in any other city in the world.

It took a little while to get used to it, but it’s reached the point for me that whilst I definitely don’t feel any safer for having them around… I no longer notice them in the way I once did, but the question remains…
