Your link seems to confirm that it is true?

It concludes with:

> if you're out and about with your trusty lock picks you're being a little risky, so best to keep them at home!

which seems to imply to me that it's probably illegal to carry them in public?

Just because there is a law doesn't mean it's a particularly well written or good law. That's what lawyers are for.
