Met Police Guidelines
Met Police guidelines can be found at http://www.met.police.uk/about/photography.htm
(although the Jules Mattsson case shows they don't always follow them) these say
"It would ordinarily be unlawful to use section 58A to arrest people photographing police officers in the course of normal policing activities, including protests because there would not normally be grounds for suspecting that the photographs were being taken to provide assistance to a terrorist"

Bad losers?
The reaction by the Home Office will be a good test of just how much the new government believes in freedom. Really, on taking power, they should have withdrawn the appeal by the former Labour government.
Section 44 was a Labour initiative as part of their project to turn this country into a police state, and I hope that the Home Office will accept the decision with good grace.
