The report mentions the Cardiff Anarchist Network (CAN) which claims they considered the WOMBLES a drinking club which weren't taken seriously. the #spycops officer Jason Bishop agrees, but as a member of CAN at the time I fucking don't!

Lois Austin says she has never even been cautioned or arrested, says if she has done something wrong, arrest me and put in front of a court. This as never happened, she has been beaten, kettled, spied on. She is angry and upset about it. #spycops

A #spycops report by Jason Bishop about the WOMBLES protest at Campsfield Detention Centre in July 2001. He claims he doesn't recall any of it.

@tombfowler Inspired by and grateful to all the activists who are speaking at the inquiry! Insightful political reflections shared as well as awful personal experiences of relationship abuse or exploitation. Serious respect

Lois Austin points on how awful the judgement was in the civil case about kettling on Mayday 2001. She says they felt they had to appeal. Says there was an attempt to criminalise all kinds of protest. #spycops

Lindsey talks about how seeing fellow human beings being deliberately kept poor affects her personally. Talks about how a third of children in the UK are currently below the poverty line. #spycops

Lois Austin talks about the Met Police tighening the cordon, which was both dangerous and reckless. #spycops

John Beggs asked #spycops officer Carlo Soracchi for "some useful information about the nature of the beast" meaning Lois Austin.

The briefing by #spycops officer Carlo Soracchi was with the lead barrister for the Met Police John Beggs the night before he cross examined her. Beggs asked Soracchi 'what would wind up' Lois.

Lindsey talks about how there is no excuse any of these #spycops men can give to excuse this behaviour. Yet it is not Carlo Soracchi that she wants to see than answer for this, it is his managers to saw the authorisations and requested the tasking.

Lindsey is very clear. This was rape. She will continue to campaign with @out_of_lives to change the law on the Covert Human Intelligence Sources (Criminal Conduct) Act which allows this rape to continue.

Apart from feeling confused about why #spycops officer Carlo Soracchi was unwilling to converse with her. Lindsey absolutely loved the holiday to Venice. Now she is absolutely disgusted that she was used for sex and deepen affection.

Lindsey says she had no faith that any of these #spycops officers are sufficiently emotionally intelligent to feel any of the guilt they should.

Lindsey talks about hearing the undercover officer Neil Woods talking about weaponising empathy as part of deployments on a BBC podcast. She says that is exactly what #spycops officer Carlo Soracchi did to her.

John Mitting says that there was a closed side of the #spycops inquiry which showed a different side of things. Lindsey points out that if the role of the inquiry was to allay public concerns it should be made public.

Mayday 2001 was just another of the annual 1st May marches that happen throughout the world every year. On 2001 Lois along with 3000 others were kettled from 2pm until 9.30pm. This was the first use of the 'kettle' tactic by the Met #spycops
