Bags have been placed over more than 200 cameras in the Washwood Heath and Sparkbrook districts of Birmingham. A total of 218 cameras - some of them hidden - were put up in various locations across the areas.Of those, 106 were Automatic Number Plate Recognition devices which were able to record car registrations as they moved around the areas.

In a statement in April, the Safer Birmingham Project (SBP) said it had received £3m from the Home Office to improve community safety and reduce crime in the Washwood Heath and Sparkbrook wards.

However, it has since emerged the cash had come through the Terrorism and Allied Matters (TAM) fund, which is administered by the Association of Chief Police Officers' (Acpo).

The SBP - a partnership of the police, the city council and other agencies - said on Thursday: "Although the counter-terrorism unit was responsible for identifying and securing central government funds and has overseen the technical aspects of the installation, the camera sites were chosen on the basis of general crime data - not just counter-terrorism intelligence."

Anti Christ Update

The Foreign Office has apologised after a document suggested the Pope's visit to Britain should be marked by the launch of "Benedict" brand condoms.


The junior civil servant responsible was put on "other duties", it said. Entitled "The ideal visit would see..." the paper suggested the Pope be invited to open an abortion clinic and bless a gay marriage during September's visit.

Of course, this is ridiculous as, only last year, our favorite never-really-a-nazi pope pointed out that they are completely useless pieces of rubber and that Aids was
"a tragedy that cannot be overcome by money alone, that cannot be overcome through the distribution of condoms, which even aggravates the problems.
The traditional teaching of the church has proven to be the only failsafe way to prevent the spread of HIV/Aids."
