Aug 19, 2025
Whilst conducting a lawful drone flight on public property. The security of Ceder Court Hotel in Wakefield started taking my image, which is an overreach on their part. So I went to the front of the hotel to try and get some details about how to request a copy and started asking security some other questions...which is where this live starts. It will be included in the full video.

Good morning. Is it afternoon now? I'm
0:14
not 100% sure. Good afternoon. It's 1:00
0:17
p.m. Well, 10.
0:20
We just came to have a look at the Cedar
0:22
Court Hotel
0:24
in Wakefield due to the assault of
0:28
Excite Audits the other day. A clip of
0:31
that will be in the full video when it's
0:35
published.
0:37
But I just thought I would fly my drone
0:39
over and have a look see it looks like
0:41
with a lawful drone flight. So I took
0:43
her and landed on public property
0:46
and has had a walk around on public
0:48
footpaths and then one of the security
0:50
guards
0:51
starts taking pictures of members of the
0:53
public on public land.
0:57
And then we had four of them patrolling
1:00
around following from public
1:04
for me walking on public land not even
1:06
stepping foot on the property.
1:10
So the car park for seed of caught now
1:14
where it has actually access to
1:18
the leisure club evergreen office car
1:20
park
1:22
is now barriered off
1:26
with all the cones.
1:28
So do you move the cones any people come
1:30
to the leisure club?
1:33
Hen
1:35
if someone comes to the leisure club do
1:37
you shift the cones and let them in?
1:39
Okay. What was it was a new member
1:40
coming to pick a membership card up?
1:43
So, absolutely not.
1:44
It's closed. So,
1:45
the membership is closed
1:47
since when has it been closed?
1:49
No. Um, only the members they are
1:52
allowed.
1:53
Okay. What about new members?
1:56
So, you don't know about new members?
1:59
So, I wanted to go sign up. It's not
2:01
allowed.
2:04
Call them, contact them on the website.
2:06
They will respond you.
2:07
Yep. And then if I've done that and I
2:10
come in to visit, how do I gain access?
2:13
[Music]
2:15
If you got it, you know,
2:17
yeah,
2:17
then you let us know. We will call them
2:20
and if uh they clear you, you can come.
2:23
So if they say, "Oh yeah, this person's
2:25
allowed." They ask people for ID when
2:27
they come in.
2:29
Okay. So what how what gives you the
2:31
right to check people's IDs if they are
2:33
here for a legitimate purpose?
2:36
No, my dear. That's it. I already
2:38
already given you the information which
2:39
I know.
2:40
Okay.
2:40
Okay.
2:40
Yeah. No, that's fine. Like how many how
2:43
many residents have you got?
2:48
No comments.
2:49
No comments.
2:52
What about the uh kitchen that was
2:56
Yeah. All the all the gentleman that was
2:57
assaulted and pushed down the stairs the
2:59
other day. Do you have no comments on
3:00
that either? I
3:02
don't. Can you guys please?
3:04
No comments.
3:09
Okay, that's fine. Um, do you know your
3:11
other gentleman who like took the photo
3:13
with me when I was on the public
3:14
footpath? Do you want to remind him that
3:16
it's not illegal to take photos from a
3:18
public place?
3:20
And how do I request a copy of that
3:22
image?
3:24
Is it Cir or M I need to speak to? So, I
3:27
know Mia runs this facility now.
3:31
You can do that.
3:32
Yeah. Um, can I get his name then so I
3:34
can put it in the report on the
3:37
subject access request?
3:40
No. What about yourself?
3:42
I don't have this information, my
3:43
friend.
3:44
Well, if you're working for them, I
3:45
think you will do.
3:48
So, they're not give you any
3:49
information. Just give you a high visa
3:51
badge and just say, "Right, you go. You
3:53
go sit here. Don't let anybody in."
3:56
So, you do have the information. You
3:57
don't want to divulge the information.
4:02
What about yourself? You have this
4:03
information.
4:05
No comments of you either.
4:09
How come?
4:11
Easy enough questions to answer.
4:15
Do you know when this is going to be
4:16
open to the public again?
4:20
Is anybody want to going to Is anybody
4:22
going to want to stay here after they've
4:24
sold out to government contracts
4:27
over the British public?
4:28
I don't know. You don't know? Welcome.
4:38
Who will be the next prime minister?
4:42
Nigel Farage probably the where things
4:44
are going.
4:46
Right. I'm going to go for a walk around
4:48
the on the public footpath.
4:53
I will. That's fine. So I don't get
4:55
hassled on public property. I'll be
4:58
happy.
5:00
Do I think it's a little bit of an
5:02
overreach taking photos of public on
5:04
public land when they've not even
5:05
stepped foot on? Or do you take pictures
5:07
of everybody that walks past? Women,
5:09
children.
5:12
No comments, sir.
5:14
No comments.
5:16
What about yourself on that one?
5:19
[Music]
5:21
You can laugh all you want. It's like
5:22
I'm just asking the question.
5:27
So is it everybody you take photos of
5:29
women, children
5:31
as well as men walking past stood on
5:33
public land.
5:38
Yes. No. Maybe.
5:46
Right. Well, we'll go for a wonder
5:48
around the edge of the perimeter again.
5:54
Ask him a few questions.
5:56
no comment or they were not privy to
5:59
that information about who they are
6:00
working for.
6:05
So there's two
6:09
sat up there and we'll see if any of
6:11
more of them do follow me around.
6:18
[Applause]
6:19
Super Slav will
6:23
depends how bad it smells, doesn't it?
6:25
Great comment.
6:31
Sitting there on the job. Yep.
6:55
We'll go back to where we were. See,
6:57
this guy here now is following me back
6:59
around.
7:04
Nice helmet that man.
7:08
Big Union Jack on the helmet of his
7:11
bike.
7:14
So, we go. See, not even on the
7:16
premises.
7:18
like Exite audits who went on to ask
7:21
about the health club.
7:30
Right, we'll walk back and see if he can
7:31
follow me back this way again.
7:36
[Applause]
7:46
Yep. stood there waiting for me.
7:49
We will carry on. Let's see if he
7:53
follows again.
8:06
We'll see if we stop walking again.
8:09
[Applause]
8:20
Yeah, if he's still there.
8:26
All right, so we'll carry on a bit
8:27
further. If you get closer, I got to ask
8:29
him why he's following me around.
8:37
Keep going.
8:40
Right. He can't see me now. behind the
8:42
hill. We play hide and seek for him.
8:46
Go back this way.
8:58
So, we are still on the outside. We're
9:00
not going into their land.
9:04
But yeah, he thinks I think I've gone
9:05
right down that way.
9:10
Hide and seek security.
9:16
We'll carry on going to where I was
9:18
going to go anywhere.
9:27
[Applause]
9:29
[Music]
9:30
Ah, there he is. He lost me.
9:40
So we have got the big tower in the
9:43
middle
9:47
on
9:49
[Applause]
9:54
then we have got took a picture on the
9:57
drone of it see on top of that building
10:06
I'm not wasting my voice shouting over
10:09
to him.
10:19
Oh, we've got another one here sneaking
10:21
in and out the fence.
10:44
There we go. It's just creeping about
10:49
the other guy.
10:54
What's that?
11:01
So yeah, they didn't want to answer any
11:02
questions.
11:07
Like I think it was a bit of a overreach
11:09
by security and I stood outside on a
11:13
public footpath where we'll go now. They
11:16
start taking pictures of members of the
11:18
public.
11:19
So I asked them if they would take
11:21
pictures of women and children as well.
11:23
So I was doing the same thing. No
11:25
comment.
11:28
So if you walk past and you stand in a
11:31
public area,
11:34
it's like they're entitled to take your
11:36
photo and they won't give you any
11:38
details.
11:40
It's hard to request images.
11:56
So there's a gentleman there on the back
11:59
that he takes pictures of members of the
12:01
public down this public footpath. But it
12:04
comes down
12:09
and up here.
12:12
I'll go to where I was stood.
12:19
[Applause]
12:23
This is where I flew the drone from.
12:26
Public footpath.
12:29
And we have got the other two still
12:32
following
12:33
rounds.
12:37
After I landed the drone,
12:42
we walked up here.
12:48
And we have a public barrier
12:51
where someone has put a sticker on
12:53
saying stop the boat.
13:03
My opinion, if someone comes over,
13:06
they have a passport so you can identify
13:09
them.
13:11
Fair enough. Go down the proper
13:13
channels.
13:15
If anything else, I think the government
13:16
should just detain and deport.
13:21
So, it's getting ridiculous now with the
13:24
amount of taxpayer cash
13:27
being spent on these places.
13:30
And the other day,
13:32
one of the latest videos on my channel
13:34
is I found a care home which I got
13:36
tipped off about by a viewer. And that
13:39
is a mixed asylum accommodation in
13:42
there.
13:44
So this is where I've all stood.
13:46
This open publicly accessible area.
13:51
And then the gentleman started taking
13:53
photos.
14:00
Here's a nice little football pitch
14:01
they've got. Excite was playing a little
14:04
bit of football.
14:08
Got a pair of flip flops or thongs if
14:11
you're Australian.
14:15
But yeah,
14:18
the short gentleman there is one who
14:20
takes members of the public studing
14:22
public
14:26
the accessible areas.
14:30
Right. So, we're going to end that one
14:31
there
14:35
and
14:37
catch you in the next video.
14:40
Thanks for watching.
