To me it's a terrible idea. There is more than enough filming of UK citizens already and police have too much power. They can use anti-terrorism laws to harrass or arrest you on all sorts of ridiculous grounds - like taking photographs.
It sounds like a play for popular support - harrassing the the anti-social youth. It wouldn't be long before it's used for totally different purposes. There always has to be a 'cover story' which appeals to the sensibilities of the man on the street, right before some Draconian new law or practise is introduced.
The stronger individuals in communities need to be more cooperative with eachother in dealing with thuggery, instead of locking themselves away in their concrete boxes and not interacting.
