What a vacuous bunch of self-justifying morons the "Port of Tyne" is, paying out for the creation of signs for people to look at but not to photograph. If anyone there had a functioning brain cell then they would long since have ensured that every sign, every paving stone, every brick in the wall, every tree and every leaf (if there are trees in Newcastle) has a notice attached to it: "DO NOT TAKE A PICTURE OF THIS". It's the way any asylum would organise things, so why not the Port of Newcastle? As for the local police not having the balls to say the Renta Uniform Cops are a right Laurel & Hardy, no surprise there . . .
