Smacks of Bob "incendiary device" Lambert planting a device in Debenhams because it's what "Bob Robinson" would do #spycops #fakingit

So #spycops Rob 'Harrison' / Robert Hastings lied his way onto Riseup email lists. I wonder if he (or another spycop) was on any of ours? Riseup is still providing as vital a service as it was when launched in Seattle in 1999 riseup.net/en

The #spycops officer Robert Hastings used the name Robert Harrison, known as Rob, and used the handle BoogieBoy online. Using Urban75, Indymedia and Riseup, claims not to remember others. He would arrange CD swaps to get activist addresses.

Just stop being a dick and answer the bloody question. The level of disrespect, he's an absolute pig #spycops
Tom Fowler@tombfowler

The #spycops officer Robert Hastings is claiming that he doesn't know if he wrote the raw report that is presented. Is being very rude to the counsel to the inquiry.

Extract from SumacNews@lists.riseup.net from February 2006 re Rossport Shell Campaign and planning gathering for the (first) Climate Camp. Certainly will have been of interest to certain #spycops

Our profile of #spycops Rob Hastings from back in the day has a long list of all DJ gigs he did as Boogie Knight, or 'Rob Harrison' - his cover name. See: powerbase.info/index.php/Rob_…

Hastings was booked as the DJ for a fundraiser for the De Menezes family justice campaign but claims he can't remember it. #spycops

The customer squad comments on the #spycops authority document for Robert Hastings claims that groups were using the murder of Jean Charles De Menezes to attack the government and it's policy in Iraq.

"There was certainly flirting between the two of us but that is all it was" he adds. He does not recall making any advances on her and (unconvincingly) denies that she rejected his advances

Well Glastonbury has been a favourite of several of the #spycops I'm sure if #RobHastings had been asked he'd have gone. If he was being paid overtime obvs. Ripping off the @metpoliceuk #thief
Tom Fowler@tombfowler

There are #spycops reports about Atif Choudhury going to Glastonbury festival and the Make Poverty History march. It is put to Robert Hastings that is is legitimate activities. Hastings says he certainly wouldn't go to Glastonbury!

Robert Hastings HN18 seems to be getting more riled up. More combative in his responses. Natural accent shining through too.

Discounting his accidental outlying posts after his 'Harrison' deployment ended, Hastings averaged 1.57 posts per day as Boogie Boy; as Fictionist he increased to 5.12ppd; & following his sacking he was banging out 7.24ppd as Beats & Pieces. A lot of threats, misogyny, trolling..
UndercoverResearch@UndercoverNet

So #spycops HN18 Rob Hastings had the freedom to be on his computer all day and post his mysonogistic comments on the Urban75 platform, using his Boogyboy handle set up to support his legend, while being paid by the Met. No words.

Would you have reported on them going on a family holiday to France? “Yes!” Hastings insists he would have reported on him wherever he went, as this provided Special Branch with “context”. #spycops

At the #spycops inquiry, the barrister asks Robert Hastings if he came onto a young woman and was rejected by her while he was an undercover cop spying on Palestine activists. He laughs, robustly says "No", then begins another sentence "She was..." before thinking better of it

@Donna__McLean @PenderynDic Cops don't know the law they're meant to be upholding shocker. This is what you get when you don't do proper training to be an undercover. Though im not sure it'd have made much difference for this bunch of sociopaths #spycops #eliteoftheelite

Is the 'expand your reporting base' thing something we've heard before, almost as a coded warning from managers that 'we know you're filing bogus reports, get off your arse and find a more active target'?

@JustStop_Oil @XRebellionUK @ExtinctionR @ScotlandXr @XRLondon @XR_LondonRebels @UndercoverNet @Zaytoun_CIC @tombfowler @PeterSalmon7 @ucpinquiry @globaliseresist @urban75 @BristleKRS @metpoliceuk @AsaWinstanley @VSDawson He says this took place after he’s been told to expand his #spycops targeting from ISM. He says No Borders “had been identified” and admits that this was “possibly” identified by him rather than his managers.

Was race important to him because he was looking for Islamic fundamentalism? He responds to say that Islam is not a race. He included standard police markers for race in his #spycops reports

WELL HOW WOULD HASTINGS KNOW THAT WITHOUT PRETENDING TO BE HIS FRIEND AND THEN FABRICATING REPORTS AND ATTRIBUTING EVERYTHING TO HIM? It's not toxic or abusive if you like them, right? #spycops
Tom Fowler@tombfowler

The #spycops officer Robert Hastings claims he did not report on Atif Choudhury because he was one of the only asian people, with a muslim heritage. It is pointed he wasn't involved in ISM by this point, but Hastings says he couldn't be sure.
