@@groovyray Would be great to have a "drone in", a bit like the incredibly historic mass tresspasses in the Peak District before it became a national park.
How can that idiot from the national grid justify his wages when he can’t clarify a simple question beggars belief, well done dj for letting him know what he should be doing in his job, keep up the good fight my friend
The problem is that most of these company security staff, managers, etc are trained to implement the company's internal policies and not the law of the land. And, of course, many of them tow the line out of misplaced loyalty.
How embarrassing for the National Grid, I’m sure they will have a meeting about this incident too! DJ you were absolutely on point with your questions to the ‘No Drone’ operator who was poorly trained and totally unhelpful to you. Hopefully good will come from your Audit video for the education to those who try to remove the legal rights of a drone operator or photographer in public spaces. Keep up the great work DJ. 😎🙌🏻
Agreed. That would be an excellent bit of content. The chap DJ spoke to at the gate was really very civil and really wanted to learn and better understand, he was also interested in the footage.
Probably one of your best videos. What an absolute embarrassment the guy on the phone was, and unfortunately, I don't think the content of your conversion with him will go any further.
That is the old LG Electronics factory, that was built by the Welsh Assembly to lure LG to Wales, they gave LG millions of pounds in grants to come to Newport. LG stayed a few years and then toddled back to South Korea with millions of pounds in the bank courtesy of the Welsh tax payer. They are now building a Microsoft Data centre on the site I believe, no doubt the Welsh Assembly are giving Microsoft millions of pounds in grants yet again. You couldn't make this stuff up.
Imagine putting up a sign like that,only that is really stupid,but then when actually calling,they have absolutely NO idea about anything when it comes to drones and laws...Wow...I feel a little bad for the guy answering,im sure he wasnt the stupid one with the idea of putting up that sign...
Vantage data centre was the place i was talking about on yest, video DJ. Hope they were nicer to you than me when i was there😂😂😂 nice video again buddy... B.E.V.😁👍
How strange, yesterday I was next to a national grid sub station and saw the same sign on their fence!! This was in Dartford around the corner from the Amazon site you did!! (And got your keyring💪😂)I took a picture of it to DJ!! Obviously national grid own the airspace as well!! 😂😂wow. 🤦♂️
The person at 0:10 works for Vantage data centre. + It's company policy not to ware your ID tag outside the gate. The site will be second data centre, there are also plans to build one more of the side on Bridgend Ford.
Well the chap manning the blower is a costly asset . I wonder how much companies and the authorities waste on resources rolling out the little porky pies .

Hi DJ , interesting video as normal but some interesting i saw todays new release on black belt barrister about councils setting up no drone zones he said it was contradictory and conflicts the CAA law ....just in case you are interested...
please explain why a phone number is up and once connected to that number the person on the other end ,can hardly tell you what day of the week it is let along whether you can fly a drone , more waste of money on signs that mean FA

Surely the drone wasnt flying in the air whilst he was talking on the phone? 😢 huge drone flying no no! Dj always says please dont talk to me im in charge of an aircraft 😂
Oh dear. DAVID will hold station until commanded otherwise, unless battery is low ... at which pint the drone will automatically return. Do pay attention !
@noelward8047 it's DJ that needs to pay attention! Eyes on drone at all times as he says in his own words " do not talk to me whilst drone is in the air I'm in charge of an aircraft" but when it suits him he just refers to it as a lil 249 drone that can do no harm 😅😅
Lol your from the midlands I don't think he had a clue who you are I would love to see you turn up to his office with your drone I think he will love it bless him haha keep up the good work bro
QRL Group was Quinn Radiator Ltd which went into administration in 2019. The facility opened in 2005 as LG to manufacture 3.5 million radiators per year. Workers were given no notice of the facility closure. Welsh government gave funding in 2018 to help preserve jobs in addition to loans for the 2005 construction. Announced in 2022 that Microsoft acquired the facility from owner Westrook Partners to construct a new data centre. At the time was no decision if the factory would be revamped or demolished; now we know the latter. Earlier in 2024 was announced the data centre will comprise two 9 metre tall buildings with backup generator system and 14m chimneys. Facility will be cloud storage. Historically most land west of Newport was farmland. Trivia: Walters Demolition was the contractor for the former Hitachi tv factory demolition in Hirwaun ~2013 for the Drax gas power plant construction seen in a recent DJ video. Great video and opportunity to see demolition in progress (though not an old building). 👍⭐⭐⭐

People like him love meetings, they just drone on for hours when a simple email would do
Corporate businesses always the same, they have meetings about meetings and never actually get anything done
Exactly. Giving these people a chair is a big mistake....for 1.5 hours ....bla bla...no new or useful information will be exchanged
People like payed my house deposit with OT😅
Yep meetings about the meeting they had about how to save money, everyone outside the meeting can see exactly where the money is being wasted. 😆
Glad you took the guy to task , you were right, if the number is on the gate , the guy answering the phone should know what he's talking about
There are very few people left in this country that actually know what they are doing! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
But he doesn't.
Love how the contractor laughed when you told the phone dude that if he wanted to ring the cops you'd be there for about 20 minutes or so😂🤣😂

Seems like the sign is just an empty threat to scare off the ignorant, not worth the plastic it's printed on. It didn't stand a chance against DJ.
The problem is that most of these company security staff, managers, etc are trained to implement the company's internal policies and not the law of the land. And, of course, many of them tow the line out of misplaced loyalty.
And the assumption their company bases their policies on law.
I’m not an employee and your policies do not apply to me.

Man on the phone, answering the “if you see a drone, call this number” sign…. Is WORTHLESS.
They have a phone number and panic when the Red Phone rang !
