Hello,

I wanted to know if it was illegal or legal for anyone (public) to record using there phones inside a private business/shop?

Thanks in advance!!

Without permission, usually.

Not illegal as such but if asked to stop and/or leave you must comply as it's private property

Depends if it is open or secret recording, if openly recording, you can do until asked to stop. If secret filming or sound recording, then no.

For some reason the first thing I thought when I read private shop was dirty videos

We've got a few sex shops in town that call themselves private shops, I think we've just figured out what the OP's up to the dirty little begger

Until a Police Officer who doesn't know the law, arrests you on terrorism charges for filming.

There could be grounds for a S43 arrest if there were extreme circumstances.

Don't film whilst wearing a backpack and sporting a beard then. Should keep you out of trouble...

Don't know or care what the law is...

Their premises, their rules.

If they don't want people to film in there, that's fine. If they don't want ugly people in there, that's fine. If they don't want ginger haired people in there, that's fine. If they don't want gay people in there, that's fine. Etc.

If you don't like their rules that's fine also, the door is that way ----->

No but they could take em to court over discrimination, it happened with a gay couple and the owners of a B&B.

Not for being ginger or ugly though, there's no rules about appearance, only race, religion, sex and sexuality
