Thought that they were legal, because they assist in detecting speed cameras, which are supposedly there to reduce accidents not make money. Government can't argue with this as it would make it look like they were trying to catch people out with speed cameras and make money.
In france you can get a £1000+ fine if you get caught with one, and they will confiscate it.

UK Law
Legislation implemented on the 27th January 1998 made the detection of speed cameras a lawful activity. Every speed camera detector available to buy at SpeedCamerasUK.com is legal to install in your vehicle. Other web sites may sell you a system (such as a laser diffuser - which 'cloaks' your car) which the police may take away from you, if you are caught using such equipment.
