The first one looks right for Arge pagana to me.

Jo | Arge pagana has all black legs.
This one looks closer to Arge cyanocrocea which utilises brambles, there seems to be some variation in the leg colour but I'm not sure about that small orange patch on the thorax side.

What's the likelihood of it being Arge pagana subsp stephensii ??
Brambles are part of the Rose family (Rosaceæ) |

Note that is also mentions Tenthredo coerulescens. This drawing does look good.
