Applaud what? If it is private property then they have the absolute right to employ private security to eject who they like, for what ever reason they like from their property.
I think what these guys did was good in principle, but they made an error in choice of location.
If they would have done this somewhere outside a police station or so... would have been 10/10
But I would only give it a 7/10 as things stand.
I agree that there is nothing wrong with the private security guards, infact they are not a bad example of how private security could work. I recently heard that the Met has now left "policing" as such to them entirely in that area...
HOWEVER, what these guys do show perfectly is the hypocracy of laws in this country. Particularly the one about "impersonating a police officer". THIS is a highlight of the video, and they get it spot on.

Contrarian
It's hardly being a contrarian, it's being a libertarian or indeed anyone who respects property!
What's the point of posting this video here?
I agree with the 1st commentator. Whilst it has some good points I think this misrepresents what I consider to be the ideals of liberty.
An interesting video none the less and it did make me laugh.
Having said that...
I'm not a party member at present. I'm thinking about joining though. How comes I can post comments on here?

These guys are loose cannons. They get some of the message right, but they also get some of the fundamentals wrong.
They also attack McDonalds and McCains for selling unhealthy food and yell at people for daring to choose to eat their products.
