Common Law Police Powers – Myths vs Reality

“Under common law, I can do that.”

You’ve heard it from police officers, security staff, and even online commentators — as if common law is a limitless power that overrides everything else. It isn’t.

In this episode, we break down what common law police powers really are, where they came from, and why they are so often misunderstood and misused. From breach of the peace myths to unlawful arrests justified as “common law”, this video separates legal fact from folklore.

You’ll learn:
• What common law powers actually allow (and what they don’t)
• Why breach of the peace is not a crime
• When statute overrides common law
• Why common law cannot be used for convenience, control, or filming
• How courts have repeatedly shut down police overreach
• What to say — and do — if common law is wrongly used against you

This episode is essential viewing for auditors, citizen journalists, activists, and anyone filming or engaging with police in public spaces.

⚖️ Key cases and laws explained include:
R v Howell (1982), Laporte (2006), Redmond-Bate (1999), PACE 1984, Criminal Law Act 1967, Article 10 ECHR, and more.

Knowledge keeps encounters calm.
Understanding limits keeps power accountable.
