Hi all,
I know its a long shot but my Mother had her bag stolen from Wetherspoons on the prom in New Brighton yesterday about 6pm.
The bag contained a purse with cards and £80 cash along with a mobile phone and other bits and pieces including car and house keys. After tracking the mobile phone I found it dumped in a bin an Rowson Street, all the cards have been cancelled and nothing has gone from them, thankfully. My concern is the keys. It was a small black bag with a silver clasp. If anybody hears anything or in the case of the bag being dumped any info would be appreciated.
The police have the girl on CCTV taking the bag and have a clear picture of her face so with any luck she will be caught.
Thank You!

It's for things like this that we need to reintroduce the stocks.
If they catch her, she'll just get a slap on the wrist.
Carpe diem.

I would love to!
Unfortunately, we were not allowed to see the footage ourselves, only the police were allowed.
By the way, I would just like to say how helpful and understanding both the staff at Wetherspoons and the police were.
Highly commendable.

Wetherspoons are in the wrong to deny you footage. This is an extract from CCTV.co.uk which explains most of it. If you click on the link there is a template to request the footage, however, be aware, publishing the photo (when you have requested the CCTV from them) could be considered a breach of the data protection act by you, and could hinder any prosecution if you ask for help finding the "thief". How to request CCTV footage in the UK CCTV Systems in the UK are covered by the Data Protection Act 1998 – and because they are, you can request footage of you from the organisation that operates the CCTV equipment. For example if your bag was stolen in a pub – you can ask the landlord to make available to you footage of the theft. There are certain elements to be aware of mind you… You have to request in writing to the owner of the CCTV system (these can often be found on signs close to the CCTV System) You will have to provide them with information about the times you wish to view, these must obviously correlate to the times you were filmed. You might want to consider adding in the letter a description of yourself and your clothing. The organisation must issue you with a copy of the CCTV footage within 40 calendar days. They may charge you a fee of £10 for this. Consider including a photo of yourself to help the CCTV operator identify yourself more easily.

Quite probably it was the police who denied access rather than Wetherspoons. Don't want to prejudice any future court case or have someone take the law into their own hands. Usually if they can't identify someone after a few weeks they tend to make it public through local media and then you can play Sherlock Holmes.
Do hope they catch the thieving bitch though!

I think you will find that you can only request footage of YOURSELF rather than a third party.When you get the picture back you will be the only person not blocked out.
Wetherspoons maybe correct in saying that they are not authorised to show you the pictures.
This used to be the law unless things have changed recently.
