Ex-police officer tells inquiry she infiltrated lawful meetings of as few as two activists
Police sent an undercover police officer to infiltrate a very small women’s rights group that lawfully campaigned for equal pay, free contraception and better nursery provision, a public inquiry has heard.
The police spy, who used the fake name Sandra when she infiltrated a branch of the Women’s Liberation Front in north London between 1971 and 1973, conceded that her deployment failed to uncover any useful intelligence.
