The first step would be ensuring war criminals like you are locked up in The Hague.

Helen Steel brings up John Dines interview where he says "I had to make her have feelings for me, but I didn't care whether she has feelings for me" then goes on "I couldn't give a rat's about leaving behind someone who had feelings for me, I really couldn't" #spycops

4. Yet again not enough time has been given to police witnesses - half a day for a cop that lied about a two year relationship iş disgusting. Yet again abusive liars are protected. Utterly disgusting.

3. This is the tip of the iceberg and small compared to other issues. But it is mentally draining to prepare to hear a cop talking about a traumatic incident only for it to be ignored. If I hadn’t been told it was an area that would be covered it wouldn’t be so bad.

2. We were told HN60 would be asked about his arrest in Scotland with me. This was a deeply traumatic event involving a massive policing operation and being separated from my baby. But no questions were asked.

[Emily Apple @emilyapple]

🧵Yet again @ucpinquiry has failed to grasp what trauma informed means. Telling core participants a #spycops witness is going to be questioned on a traumatic event - and then not asking any questions about it is not trauma informed.

If you're a UCO telling the UCPI "I don't feel well, I have a tummyache in my head, I'm basically Anne Frank" they will move heaven and earth to arrange things to your satisfaction. If you've pursued justice to the other side of the world... your call is important to us. #spycops

[Donna McLean @Donna__McLean]

John Dines was afforded millions of pounds of public money to relocate. He's too much of a coward to give evidence.
#spycops

[Emily Apple @emilyapple]

The fucking arrogance, offensiveness and lack of self awareness in this comment by HN60 is staggering even by #spycops standards.

[Tom Fowler @tombfowler]

Helen Steel is already very emotional in giving the context for her appearance to the inquiry today. She points out how #spycops officer John Dines refusing to co-operate with proceedings means the onus is on her to provide all the detail.

End of Helen Steel at the #spycops inquiry https://t.co/aJevHWigZn

@ucpinquiry @tombfowler @ARspycatcher @fruitbatmania @SWP_Britain @Unison @helensclegel @helensteel12 @metpoliceuk @earthfirst_uk With the @ucpinquiry on the horizon, they ask:
“How will the current stance be viewed in the public arena?”

It is very clear that the Met cared far more about the optics, and their own reputation,than they ever did about the victims.

@ucpinquiry @tombfowler @ARspycatcher @fruitbatmania @SWP_Britain @Unison @helensclegel @helensteel12 @metpoliceuk @earthfirst_uk In June 1990 he was asked to take two people from McDonald’s to Walworth cop shop to look at photos of protestors.

Steelknows that a McDonald’s spy was provided with information -about her and Dave Morris- by the police, and the corporation used this info to sue them.

[COPS @copscampaign]

@ucpinquiry @tombfowler @ARspycatcher @fruitbatmania @SWP_Britain @Unison @helensclegel @helensteel12 @metpoliceuk @earthfirst_uk Steel has some other issues that she’d like to flag up for the inquiry’s attention.

One of these is the collusion that took place between McDonald’s and the SDS.

She brings up several documents which evidence this.

[rob evans @robevansgdn]

those who were spied on say the Home Office is looking to severely limit or scrap the later stages, leaving the full extent of wrongdoing by the police hidden. They say more than 2,000 people have objected to what they believe would be a cover-up. #spycops https://t.co/XX564MHGct

[COPS @copscampaign]

We remember...
the Colin Roach centre in Hackney,
the campaigns for justice (incl the one for Trevor Monerville)

...and the actions of one of the #spycops, Mark Jenner, who used the name 'Mark Cassidy' to spy on these campaigns and deceive @AlisonSpycops

[COPS @copscampaign]

The #spycops inquiry "has already uncovered extensive misconduct, and these attempts to restrict further investigation beg the question what more have the police got to hide?” says @KimJohnsonMP
