The undercover policing and trade unions conference takes place at the University of Greenwich, London, on Saturday November 16.
The one-day event will increase understanding of the impact of political policing on trade unions and movements for social change since 1968.
Bringing together trade unionists, activists and other campaigners, this conference will strengthen our campaign to ensure the forthcoming public inquiry is not a cover-up but exposes the truth of Britain’s political secret police. It will strengthen our struggle for justice and the protection of human rights.
One of the sessions at the conference is:
Truth and Fiction: representations of spycops on screen
The conference will be jointly hosted by:
Campaign Opposing Police Surveillance (COPS), an umbrella organisation campaigning on behalf of many of those spied upon by Britain’s political secret police.
Police Spies Out of Lives (PSOOL) a campaign and support group for women affected by abusive relationships with undercover police officers.
The Blacklist Support Group (BSG), a justice campaign and support network for anyone caught up in UK construction industry blacklisting scandal.
