Spycops in the North-West of England, Liverpool

Political policing hit the headlines almost a decade ago, when the
activities of Mark Kennedy (aka “Mark Stone”) were exposed in the
public.

Since then, the public inquiry into undercover policing has made slow progress – and inevitably become London-centric.

This talk will aim to correct this by taking a look at the fragmentary evidence we have of the history of state subversion of progressive and radical movements outside of London, with a focus on the North West of England.

An update of the progress of the public inquiry will also be provided – followed by a Q&A.

Chris Brian is a researcher for the Undercover Research Group and one of the many who were spied-upon.
