The full text of the #Blacklist Support Group opening statement for tranche 3 of the #spycops inquiry is in the link below. For anyone particularly interested in #blacklisting & police spying on trade unions, our section starts at page 35. Please share. ...

John Mitting thanks Angus McCullough KC, and asks him to assure S that every effort will be made to protect the anonymity of her and her family. We break for lunch #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

S's opening statement ended with calling for a cultural and systemic change in police attitudes towards women to make misogyny and sexual misconduct a thing of the past #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

... Day (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

As #spycops manager Bob Lambert authorised Mark Jenner to take overnight trips out of London, over New Years Eve 1996 & Valentine’s Day 1997. Not considering it odd that the Hackney based Colin Roach Centre was holding meetings in Northumbria & Bristol on NYE and Valentine’s ...

It took Mark Jenner less than three months of his #spycops deployment to deceive @AlisonSpycops into a sexual relationship (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

'S' only learnt of Mark Jenner's sexual abuse as a #spycops officer was when news of it was published many years later. She was blindsided and devastated by the truth. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

... (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

When one of Jenner's targets walked past him at their family home, 'S' agreed to relocate to unfamiliar area outside of London. She was told there was a risk of serious violence if the move did not take place. She now realises it was just to protect #spycops existance ...

'S' was told that Mark Jenner would be involved in dangerous and important work as a #spycops officer to ensure the safety of society as a whole. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

When Mark Jenner was recruited into the #spycops unit Bob Lambert talked to her about the realities of undercover life. Assuringher about the welfare of her husband, and his entire family. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

The Catagory H agree that #spycops misleading courts is a scandal, but the sexual abuse of women is far worse. The fact that it was being justified by managers for so long, even today, it a disgrace (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy quotes #spycops officer Peter Francis as "an ordinary part of the undercover role… regarded by officers and management alike as part of the work.” (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

It is pointed out that James Thomson fabricated a whole police operation in order to fund a trip to France and extend his time as a #spycops officer (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy points out that James Thomson's time as a #spycops officer was considered scandalous even at the time, but not because of his abuse of women. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

The impact on "Wendy" is substantial and has it found it difficult to come to terms with the fact she was manipulated for over two decades #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

James Thomson maintained his contact with "Wendy" long after his #spycops deployment ended. Asking her about other animal rights activists (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

When "Wendy" got her inheritance she bought a house, James Thomson's reports show that he attempted to disrupt this. #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

"Wendy" was deceived into a long term relationship by James Thomson for 21 years from 1997 to 2018. From when she was 17. He put himself inside the inner circle of support whilst she lost her mother. #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

"Ellie" says "I hate that I was gullible and so naive, but seeing what the Metropolitan Police are like nowadays, I am no longer surprised that they never even considered we were worth basic respect" #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

The impact of the deception on "Ellie" has been significant, she is still not really able to process what happened #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy is now introducing "Sara" and "Ellie" who were deceived into sexual relationships by #spycops officer James Thomson and "Wendy" who had a close relationship that Thomson would have liked to be sexual. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

This morning break reaction video to the hearings so far at the #spycops inquiry (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy points out how engaged in the inquiry many of the women have been, attending every day and witnessing the appalling behaviour of #spycops when being questioned (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

It is welcomed that the Met police acceptant that the "Neither confirm not deny' approach when dealing with the women deceived into sexual relationships by #spycops was wrong. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Sexual misconduct should be recognised as an abuse of power that has profound implications for those who were deceived #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

The strong condemnation of #spycops managers by the Met Police is welcomed. The Tradecradt manual condoned sexual activity and gave the impression it was a grey area, that impression continues to this day. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

... https://spycops.co.uk/myths-about-spycops/… #spycops (@spiesoutoflives.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy at @ucpinquiry explains how #spycops used & abused women. Emotionally manipulating & physiologically harming us. A key message for inquiry to understand: these are not simply men lying in relationships. We bust this myth here: ...

... (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy makes a distinction between men who lie to women about their intentions in normal life and #spycops who used their position to abuse women. The state has a special role in all of our lives, when it's agents use its resources to abuse us, it is a crisis. ...

We will hear the live evidence of three women deceived into sexual relationships by #spycops during the next phase of hearings @AlisonSpycops 'Sara', and 'Ellie' (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Widespread knowledge and indifference about the sexual abuse in the highest levels of #spycops management is very clear (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy is delivering a absolutely devastating litany of appalling abuses by #spycops, that we will be hearing over tranche 3 (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Woman after woman has told the #spycops inquiry about the havoc these men have wrecked on their lives. (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Charlotte Kilroy outlines the horrific nature of the stories we have heard of how #spycops used and abused so many women, often in what was their first serious relationship. Emotionally manipulating them and physiologically harming them (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

We're back with Charlotte Kilroy KC representing the women deceived into sexual relationships by #spycops officers (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Fiona Murphy has now finished, we have a short break, I'll do a recap video on facebook and tiktok now #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

It's noted that stealing of dead children's identities was only stopped for practical reasons and not any moral concerns #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

John Mitting interrupts Fiona Murphy to tell her off for over running her slot. She says she will only be 2 minutes #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Why did #spycops officer James Thompson not face appropriate prosecution or disciplinary action when several criminal and disciplinary offences had clearly been identified (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

... (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

The #spycops officer James Thomson's behaviour clearly took part in illegal and unauthorised activities. His collogues expected him to be arrested for obtaining driving licence and banking facilities by deception, but was he was only informally reprimanded ...

Protest this Friday at the #spycops public inquiry (@DaveBlacklist)

The flippant and degrading references towards the dead children in the tradecraft manual is brought up. It is compounded by the statements of so many #spycops at the inquiry (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

You don't have to click on this link if the Daily Fail offends but the fact it's reporting on #spycops in such detail shows how far we've come. (@spiesoutoflives.bsky.social)

Fiona Murphy points out that the practise of stealing dead children's identities was only dropped out of a lack of security due to the computerisation of records, not out of any ethical concerns #spycops (@tombfowler.bsky.social)

Fiona Murphy is very strong on challenging that #spycops claim that they were working in the public interest, but rather self-preserving to avoid accountability (@tombfowler.bsky.social)
