Spycop HN85 Roger Pearce 'Roger Thorley' infiltrated anarchist groups 1979-84. He gave evidence to the spycops public inquiry in July 2024. The Inquiry hasn't posted video of him being questioned on its YouTube channel, so we've posted it on ours.
Thorley wrote anti-police articles while undercover. Afterwards he became a Special Branch manager before retiring in 2003 to write awful novels.

Frmr sr #CanadianIntelligence offcls say #Canada needs 2 B on lookout 4 campaigns aimed @ destabilizing country amid US #Trump's..51st state threats
..
#CIA has worked 2 destabilize many gov's & nations in the past, using methods as mundane as #corruption & as drastic as #assassination, but former #spy chiefs say campaign aimed @ Canada would likely rely less on cloak-and-dagger tactics & more on #SocialMedia, such as the #Musk-owned #X platform

From Malpensa to Tel Aviv: Italian police use Israeli software to spy on anti-deportation activsts
„Police violence is about more than batons. It also manifests itself through interference and encroachment into private life. Police have always used an odious set of tools to achieve this. They follow people’s movements and observe and listen to their daily lives.
Today, however, access by police forces and governments to confidential, detailed and sensitive information can be much more pervasive than one might imagine. The spyware system Paragon, that has recently come to light, is one example of this. The services provided by the Israeli company Cellebrite are another, albeit different, example.
We have written this text because we believe it may help people protect themselves from the pervasive surveillance by the authorities. We invite you to share it widely.…“
More than 100 spied-on individuals & groups have told the #spycops public inquiry they won't be giving evidence unless they're given more time. The Inquiry has delayed its next hearings by 7 months, but is keeping witnesses to earlier impossible deadlines
UK-based Bulgarian spy ring tracked Russian dissidents and passed secrets to Putin’s regime
#Intelligence agencies treat commitments to foreign agents as sacrosanct, pledging to keep agents safe & shield their identities. Anything that jeopardized that would violate that trust, & could lead some #spy services to hold back information from the #US.
The #allies, including #Israel, #SaudiArabia & members of the so-called #FiveEyes spy #alliance of #democracies, are examining how to revise current protocols for sharing intelligence taking #Trump’s warm relations w/ #Russia into account.
"During a stopover in Denmark, he was instructed to report his passport stolen, and obtain new travel documents, in order to obscure his visit to #Russia. And he was to be paid in cryptocurrency for his services."

Helen Steel was 22 when she fell in love with John Barker. Except he wasn't real - he was actually Special Demonstration Squad officer John Dines who'd stolen the identity of a boy who'd died of leukaemia aged 8.
They were living together, then John suddenly disappeared. Helen knew something wasn't right and did pioneering detective work that brought the spycops scandal out into the light.

'Alison' lived with her partner Mark Cassidy for 5 years. He integrated into her family & they spent Christmas together. He was actually married #spycops officer Mark Jenner. She is one of dozens of women similarly abused. Yesterday, she told This Morning about her experience.
On Thursday, ITV begin a 3 part documentary. Thursday March 6th on ITV at 9pm.
Ah, Trump just paused all military aid to Ukraine, lifted sanctions on Russia, cancelled all cyber operations (offensive and defensive) against Russia, and fired a bunch of the Cyber team too. Oh and he took whatever classified documents he had back to Mar-A-Largo as well.
And we still aren't openly saying he's a Russian asset yet?
Remember well that yesterday, a Russian so-called journalist gained entry to the Oval Office (while important agencies like Reuters and AP were excluded): https://www.reuters.com/world/russian-state-media-reporter-gains-access-is-later-removed-trump-zelenskiy-2025-02-28/
Or to say it politely with CNN: "As the White House takes control of the pool roster, the TASS staffer’s presence represents a potential security lapse on the White House’s part." https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/media/tass-russian-state-media-oval-office/index.html
Fortunately, no window was open.
