David Hoffman

Photographer David Hoffman had his London home visited by British police on the day of the May 6 general elections. They forcibly removed a poster from his window featuring a photo of Conservative Party leader (and now prime minister) David Cameron and the word 鈥渨anker鈥, the British Guardian said on May 11. Hoffman said police threatened him with arrest and handcuffed him during the visit, claiming the poster was 鈥渙ffensive campaign material鈥. Hoffman said police 鈥渨ent completely over the top鈥, the Guardian reported.
