i never breached the grounds on which the building is on. i didnt fly over any gates or security measures they have in place. i simply flew my drone above the public walkway next to the river clyde, dont think ive breached anything here thankfully. if i was at the other side of the building that wouldve been another story however!

Okay, you might just might want to be careful next time.
I work there, am on the BBC Approved Drone Operators List and have the CAA Permit to fly commercially.
Recheck the legislation on flying Drones in 'Congested Areas' on the CAA website, you've breached several basic Rules and you obviously weren't aware of what they are when you were flying.
Even as a hobbyist flyer, the CAA are getting very strict and the Police have been well briefed on the 'DroneCode' so are getting firm with law breakers and are acting now on any complaints.
It's hard to create great videos and stay legal but that's the challenge of being a responsible Pilot.
Good Luck.

I was let down badly when I tried to buy my Mavic pro so decided to keep flying my Phantom 2 (heavily modded) until the next version was released. So now I have a Mavic Platinum on its way due to arrive at the end of September [emoji2] happy days !!!
