In the wake of today’s revelation that former Special Demonstration Squad officer John Dines is now a university lecturer teaching police, there will be a picket of New Scotland Yard 4-5pm today.
It will emphasise that the truth is still largely unknown, that all the revelations are coming from the victims doing the investigations.
It’s time for the Met to come clean and abandon their “Neither Confirm Nor Deny” stonewalling, release the cover names of the officers from these disgraced units and open the files.
There’s a Netpol demo at Home Office from 5pm, protesting the Security and Policing event, which we’ll join after.
