What about journalists talking to camera and the public are walking by?

My experience in St John's Gardens (when I was challenged about what I was snapping) was because those gardens are owned by the Council, so strictly speaking aren't a "public place" (which sounds wrong, but it isn't).
There is nothing they can do about it Philip, but you have every right to ask for a picture to be removed from a website or forum that shows you on it.
When building a website, I have to be ultra careful that I have accounted for all my pictures, and it is very rare that I take a picture with someone else in the background - too much trouble for it's own good!
