It will make them think twice before doing it again if enough do it and it affects their bottom line.

A victory for common sense... Braehead has issued a formal apology to Chris, the contents of which can be seen below. Thanks to everyone who has supported this and brought it to the forefront of public debate.

"Dear Mr White

I am writing to formally apologise for the distress that we may have caused you and your family when you visited Braehead last Friday.

As you may be aware, in light of your complaint and the public debate surrounding the incident, we have decided to change our photography policy to allow family and friends to take photos in the mall.

Once again, I wish to sincerely apologise for any distress we may have caused,

Kind regards

Peter"

No victory for common sense as the issue would never have come up if there had been any.

In light of the ****-storm you have stirred up over this and the fact that all the morons are staying away from our stores because of it

Fixed it for you.
