Campaigning photographer has equipment confiscated after covering a protest near Sunak's home

A CAMPAIGNING photographer has been left unable to work after police arrested him and confiscated his equipment as he was covering a protest near Rishi Sunak’s Yorkshire home.

For more than 25 years, London-based freelance photojournalist Guy Smallman has covered political and social issues in Britain and overseas, including wars in Afghanistan and Lebanon.

On Tuesday last week, he was covering a “theatrical” protest by campaign group Youth Demand near Mr Sunak’s mansion near Richmond, North Yorkshire.
