He isn’t as smart as he thinks he is

That guy is straight out of a Monty Python sketch 🤣 what great entertaining 😂

Love how people have heard of GDPR but have no clue how it works

This guy is hilarious! He gives his name without being asked and then says: "you have my name so now you're in breach of GDPR". He is the equivalent of a shop owner putting an item in the pocket of a customer and then saying: "you are shoplifting".

If the manager doesn't understand GDPR how can his company be compliant.

He’s concerned about health and safety and walks around the yard without a high viz. then volunteers his privacy and accuses you of GDPR!

This guy was funnier than he realized.

Liam and Noel were right to not let little brother Nigel join their band. It would have been nothing but Drama.

What a wally, that was embarrassing to watch. It always amazes me how someone who is not easy about someone filming, end up approaching the man filming and make a spectacle of themselves. Its like the gift that keeps giving. Good stuff PJ.

There’s nothing ‘reasonable' or 'polite' about asking someone to waive their right to do public photography.

Awesome video what a performance. Loved how he kept “asking politely” but actually meant “I order you because I want”

He goes on about "common courtesy" but he still felt the need to confront a stranger just because they are using video equipment on a public street. I wouldn't call that very courteous.

Love it, he blurts his name out deliberately and insists you’re the one breaching GDPR…. The entitlement 🤣

He didn’t quite know how to get out of the situation he wished he had never got himself into.If only he had taken a deep breath and listened to your explanation first.He had made his mind up before he confronted you that he was going to impose his perceived authority to stop you filming.Always best to listen first and not make assumptions. 👍

Surely if you own a company you should know what data protection laws are for and when they apply and actually know they don't apply to members of the public who choose to film from public land. Great work PJ

This audit is a historical document of how folk are now. Well done PJ for standing up to this utter nonsense

As a health and safety professional myself, that was so embarrassing to watch. No concept or understanding of GDPR regulations and mentions pedestrian/mobile plant segregation and safety while walking around a busy yard with no hi vis on! Prat

This creepy weirdo is a legend in his own lunch box. He could do with some help. He is heading for a breakdown.

I wish people would research GDPR (both the UK and EU versions of it) - they'd soon realise it doesn't stand up to individuals/public. Only corporations have a duty to follow it. The amount of people that make themselves look so stupid is growing.

What a patronising ignorant prat that man is. Well done PJ for standing your ground as you always do.

He’s definitely topped the leaderboard for bell end of the year so far 🔝🔔🔚 Good job PJ 👍🏻

For someone apparently very concerned about safety, why wasn’t he wearing a hi viz in the scrapyard?

He went on about H&S and then just wandered off inside his yard without a Hi-Viz vest on, and he teaches H&S? What a bloody muppet!

He seemed like an intelligent fella but he acted quite the opposite. Escalation doesn't work, staying in your own domain does.

1, No hard hats on or gloves ? 2, The expert on H & S you interviewed had No hi-vis vest no hard hat on and no gloves , boots ? ... talking about health and safety, He is a danger to himself and others working around high lifting machines with in the yard ? 3, The piles of scrap look unsafe too high , The Health and Safety Executive should pay a visit before someone gets killed ... ? 4, In my opinion I would close the yard until proof of training on H & S and induction of staff , etc .

A pseudo intellectual in a scrap-yard. A little bit of common sense and they simply melt away.

He lost his previous job as a clown because he just wasn't funny ,, someone please guide him to a shower.

13:10 This is hilarious, he makes a fuss about where PJ is standing on health and safety grounds. Then as soon as a lorry arrives he comes off the path and stands in exactly the same place!

Well he provided you with exactly what he didn't want you to have without even realising it . He"ll watch this without doubt , so ..... " Hiya Numbnuts ! " 🤣🤣🤣

You dealt with the company’s patronising, know-it-all prat very well. I really enjoyed hearing his erroneous arguments.

The lorry with the German number plates "EL-SB856" is from district of Emsland, which is the state of Lower Saxony and borders The Netherlands immediately to the west of it. But this may not be the case now since one can renew their plates in any other district or "laender" anywhere in Germany. Fun fact: I am a US Citizen living in Landkreis (District of) Esslingen, but I carry "S-" plates since I like to show off my old VW with Stuttgart plates. :-)

Kin 'eck! This guy asks all the stupid questions a bad copper does to try and force a stop to a lawful activity. The best thing to do would have been to ignore him completely and carry on.

What an utter knob he was. He might give orders inside but outside in public he should mind his own business

Numpty should probably learn about GDPR if he’s going to spout it!

So concerned about privacy that he told you his name, showed you his personal car. Even pointed out the reg... Ffs thanks for making me chuckle 😂😂😉

The last time I worked in the UK the construction site had to have turnstile entry for pedestrians, dedicated walkways, no use of hand phones off a dedicated walkway. Yet my job was to inspect piling part of which was to photograph progress, during the companies induction course I was issued with a company I Phone, I did ask for an ordinary digital camera but was told the I Phone was the modern way forward. Well on site security told me to stop using a phone in the work area, I did tell them it was being used as a camera and continued using it as such. By the end of the week I had a fist full of "Parking Tickets" and was asked to attend the project office. I explained all that happened and new signage went up allowing I Phone use as a camera, which was a shame because 30 mins after leaving the office with a fully charged battery it would be flat after receiving 500 or so emails that had nothing to do with me. I stuck it for three month's and then went back to Asia where it's a lot more sawitnessed Now in your video I didn't see any dedicated walkways, the safety guy wasn't wearing a Hi Vi yet walked through the same gateway as trucks and other vehicles use, the skip truck reversed with a banksman. The German pick up crew were wandering around near the excavator, the work area was not fenced off. There seams to be no coordination on which types off work site have to comply with what rules. The job I'm talking about was Crossrail where they even had a man carrying a red flag walking in front of a number plated dumper on a public road, even JCBs had the same treatment yet they had driven onto site from miles away.

Sat here absolutely pissing myself. Brilliant as always and too smart for these clowns 🤡. Keep it up PJ

Bad attitude = bad publicity. The companies that have interacted well with you generally get lots of positive comments, the word spreads amongst others and then subsequently business gets better. This is exactly the opposite of what happened here.

The word NUMPTY springs to mind. Imagine having this guy as your neighbour

You forgot to mention “ Why isn’t he wearing high visibility covers? A Senior Moment perhaps??

I'd say call the police or Trading Standards for that overloaded VW flatbed that rolled in at the start of the video. It looked like a rear axle overload at least. Is there a repeater display for that weighbridge. It would be interesting to know what it weighed. The guy you spoke to first, seemed like a gent, that knob that came out with all the GDPR bollox, what a complete and utter, monumental bell end.

I'm just imagining living with him and discussing what to have for tea. Bloody hell 😵 Great entertainment again PJ!.

The shaggy-headed lanky guy should have taken a shave before ranting. He might’ve been a little more authoritative sounding and not so homeless looking.

✨What a pathetically ridiculous excuse for a person. To speak in a condescending way to a member of the community. Then make threats to contact police is just sad. As a employer who must think of everyone who is politely continuing to work. He is a serious liability to the entire operation. The only answer is to give him his notice for the common good.✨

PJ, just for your info, journalism isn't limited by GDPR regulations where publishing legitimately contributes to wider public debate. Auditing would be classified as meaningful debate of our personal freedoms. You are free to film and publish from a public location as you are a private citizen journalist and you are not directly monetising any personal data generated. Faces are classified under GDPR but not in journalistic contexts. Vehicle registrations are not covered by GDPR as there is no identifiable personal info involved.

Let's be adults he says, and he treats you like a child, leading you onto the sidewalk, nice one PJ, this one looked a very shady and nervous feller. 😅

I think this chap is not well and could be on the edge.

James Blunts let himself go a bit

"I'm politely asking you to stop recording" "I'm politely refusing to"

They always say "Oh, the guys aren't comfortable with you filming them". The truth is that is perfectly reasonable BUT it is the fucking employers responsibilty to ensure that their employees can work comfortably - not yours. Off the top of my head, there's trees, curtains, big fucking hedges and solid opaque doors/fences that would solve their problem but they've not put these features in place to prevent their photons escaping and blame you for that.

He described himself as a Sane Adult 😂 I watch these for the psychology , this is a great example too, someone in full control of everyone inside a premises, completely falls apart with the realisation that they have no power as soon as they step outside of it. The sensible thing to do is accept it and go back inside but their ego often stops them, they then proceed to go through a range of different angles in order to get control but fail each time and each attempt makes them look more and more like a crying baby...... He's in the street telling a random stranger to get on the pavement 😅

He was alarmingly neurotic and talked to you like you were some pleb. Go on PJ, stood your ground nicely.

Sorry no authority to tell anyone what to do in public. The fact he was being rude at the same time suggesting that PJ was not a very nice person. The only one that was insulting and being sarcastic was him you can tell he has never been told no.

He just kept digging that hole!!

Just as spectacular a meltdown as it was a year ago. I could watch this one all day long 😄. Top shelf, PJ.

Now he has made these claims he is liable for section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006, Fraud by false representation, first with GDPR, then with H&S and finally with vicarious liability which means now you can bring a civil claim against him personally, then use vicarious liability and bring a second claim against the company under "Vicarious Liability", yes it works both ways.

Oh what a plonker, he is gonna be so embarrassed watching this back, if it’s you watching this mate this will be around forever 😂

Health and Safety? Where was the back up signal… beep, beep, annoying beep?

Obviously one rule for employees to wear hi-vis and one for him!!

I hope you are ok after that storm hits mate.All the best from Dundee Scotland.🙇🙏🙇🙏 to everyone down south.👍👍✌👊👊

"Is this going to go out in the public domain" 😳 Well yes. Seeing that your scrap metal business is out in the open, and any member of the public can look from the road or path right next to the entrance. Nothing like a stupid question. 🙃

Check out auditor "Power to the proletariat" he was brutality attacked at Kings Lynn Job centre plus by the manager for auditing, the manager followed him up the street smashed him in the face a few times and kicked him, we need to get this highlighted

I actually like that bloke. Unlike the usual knuckle-draggers you have to deal with in these videos, this man seems perfectly reasonable, articulate and professional, and there was nothing he did or said that was unreasonable, to be honest.

Clearly it looks like he is trying to hide something. He may in fact be dealing in stolen goods. He certainly makes everyone think he is in fact a crook.

"He's a very silly man!"

One thing the guy is right about is in workplace the employer is responsible for the employees health and safety

Stay in school, kiddies, or you too could end up a scruffy, uninformed git who works in a scrapyard, like this man here.

This guy is comedy gold 👍

I'm wondering if maybe he was a little twitchy since LAS Metals had 3 new directors added to the company at the beginning of the month.

Always makes me laugh, that people think, just because they ask you nicely, you have to comply..... I'd nicely ask if I could borrow his car, or £50...... See how that works!

This guy was a great cross between a Monty Python sketch... and The Office. What a dweeb.

His neck seems to get longer with each passing second, especially when he tries to patronise you 🤣 I also love the mysterious despair in his voice when he suddenly says ' What is GDPR?'. Comedy gold.

The road, pedestrians have right of way, the laws have been updated.

No stolen scrap here, yeah right mate. He sure had something to hide. I wonder what ?????

What an absolutely condescending, smug and irritating individual. He's definitely got something to hide IMHO.

This is classic phycology of deviation. He keeps looking at something in that yard he doesn't want you to see and moves his position to hide it.

He looks like that Dennis Neilson ! Very creepy man 👨 😕 😳

Looks like he's fallen on hard times since the office and extras

Fuckin hell, Covid-19 hasn't done James Blunt any good!!!

You should do what DJ Audits does when they tell you that you are in breach of GDPR an that is that GDPR is for organisations only and does not apply for members of the public.

Love it! "I'm not trying to lay the law on you" seconds after he threatened to call the police. 🤣

And that muppet is the boss of a company, god help the workforce he doesn't know the first thing about GDPR or the law.

I thought you went easy on him. Would love to see him go up against DJ or AB

Owns a filthy car, wears filthy clothes and he himself looks like he hasn't showered for a year! What a scruffy fella! I bet the best place to hide the money in his house is under the soap!

With regards to Health & Safety he should only be worried if you went onto private property. I cannot understand why he was so worried as where you were standing if you slipped or tripped on the pavement you will have a possible claim against the council or who ever is suppose to maintain it.

Excellent video and commentary. The person you had the interaction with seemed reasonably educated but again lack the knowledge (no PPE) and ability to communicate with a member of the general public while doing a completely lawful activity. Keep up the great work and stay safe.

Where is his HI vis walking around the yard lol

I'm being polite again in my comments👍 maybe the health and safety executive should stand outside the gates one day and film... that's what he's bothered about.. in case* he's doing something wrong..... Scrap yards are not very well known for following the rules.. when you can compare it to a construction site ie: gloves /glasses /boots /clean hi vis/hearing protection...

When I learned to drive a forklift, I was taught to tilt the tines back, it makes the load more stable and stops them from digging in on inclines, no one seems to do this in pj's vids.

There's nothing polite or friendly about the passive aggressive behaviour of this guy.

Silly man. He needs to read up on GDPR regulations.

Good grief!! How docile do you have to be to think like this!! He really believes all the rubbish he's spouting!

Old school mega MELTDOWN, provided humorous content, thank you Melty

James Blunt's let himself go.

" The guys aren't comfortable with it and I'm not comfortable with it and it'd be nice if you'd just had the common courtesy to go 'please could I do this before I start recording inside your premises' .. " What a tool. Each time people react like this I start to lose hope and trust in them. Especially those who are working in supervisory/managerial and even director level roles. How could I possibly want to work for someone as ignorant as this ? If you don't know the law properly but insist that you're right, how can I take you seriously ? should I take you seriously ? Should anybody take you seriously ?

I'm confused how a representative of a company engaging with you and giving their name constitutes a gdpr breach 🤔

Your patience is incredible. When clowns are allowed out the world becomes surreal.

He was concerned you were gonna catch him going into the Tardis

You see, High Vis-ware imparts certain authorities and policing power not earned by the general public. Mr. Paranoid isn't even wearing his high-vis jacket of authority and still tries to boss you around. He uses the my rights are being violated argument to run off you off but then failing with that, falls back on the magic word of please to tug at your emotions. He needs to find a better shtick... and a shaving razor...

Great video. The guy you met is a fool but I’m sure everyone watching and everyone who knows him is aware of that.
