Facial recognition cameras spark Big Brother debate in Britain: A national system is proposed, raising concerns about civil liberties and erosion of freedoms. Critics, including former shadow home secretary David Davis, question the lack of debate, restrictions, and judicial oversight.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission has already deemed the Metropolitan Polices policy unlawful.
