Another intense day at the #spycops inquiry. The last one for a while, but there’s a lot to be done dissecting and understanding all the things that have been revealed. If you want to support my work you can do so at ko-fi.com/tombfowler

"If Burnham’s administration shuts down statutory scrutiny now, his commitment to institutional openness will be exposed as cynical political theatre"

Any attempt to curtail the #spycops inquiry
= a cover-up!

An excellent article in @Freedom_Paper:

The use of encrypted tech or small group structures is not sinister in #PalestineAction or political organising. We’ve had decades of #spycops infiltrating and actively disrupting our movements. Of course we need to take all measures to counteract this assault on our democracy

While we wait to hear what the official report from the Home Office has to say about the response to their consultation on the future of the #spycops inquiry, take a sneak preview of what it ought to say...

Read the interim report in full: ucpi.uk/consultation/r…

TLDR?
The key demands:
● A new Chair, supported by an expert panel
● Enforced disclosure & candour
● Respectful, trauma-informed engagement with survivors
● Funded to completion

Today, we publish our analysis of the 2600+ written responses (that we know of) to the @ukhomeoffice consultation.
The message is clear.
The @ucpinquiry must be allowed to complete its work with its original terms of reference & deliver answers to the survivors of #spycops abuses

Our challenge of the Palestine Action ban at the Supreme Court will begin shortly - at 10.30AM.

We are arguing that the ban is disproportionate to free speech and the right to protest, so it must be quashed.

Live link: supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-202…

I will also be live posting below.

It was HN56 "Alan Nicholson's" evidence (one of the few to have targeted the BNP) to the inquiry that stated the BNP weren't subversive, and that he thought one of his colleagues photographed in a BNP magazine was 'childish': "I didn't think it was political"

Andy Coles' #spycops past was exposed by his brother @RevRichardCole9
-also infamous for dishonesty, in his case pretending to be HIV positive-
who has since sought to make light of this state-sanctioned rape, using it as a jokey anecdote for #TheLastLeg viewers.

Congratulations #spycops inquiry on releasing transcripts of lyin', spyin' UCO HN15 Mark Jenner telling porky pies a mere 308 days and 306 days after it happened!

Never did a whitewash feel so cynically manipulated!

This Wednesday sees the launch of a new #spycops documentary on iPlayer, which follows my friend Jessica on her long fight for the truth about undercover cop, Tory councillor and sex pest, Andy Coles (who was outed by his brother Reverend Richard Coles)

New #Spycops documentary on former Tory councillor Andy Coles. In early 90s he was a married 32 year old cop infiltrating animal rights campaigns when he exploited ‘Jessica’, then a teenage activist, for sex and cover. His actions were an abuse of power.

Some backroom pressure seems to be influencing Labour MPs responses to constituent concerns about what increasingly looks like an attempted state cover-up watering down or shutting down the #spycops inquiry.

Has your MP been whipped into submission?

‘"The MPS has accepted that Andrew Coles had a sexual relationship with Jessica," wrote the force's commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, "and is disappointed he did not tell the truth to the inquiry."
Coles is also accused of appearing to advise colleagues to have similar relationships.’

The closer #spycops inq gets to present, the harder it will be to cosy-wash as thing of past.
