#SpyCops who deceived women they spied on into relationships inflicted the most complete invasion of privacy that it is possible for the state to enact. That they, as individuals & an institution, are doing all they can to avoid truth & accountability is utterly despicable.

There are no police witnesses at the hearing. The Met say they're all too busy. Not only have they breached their obligation to hand over all relevant facts, police actually withdrew earlier admissions that they knew about Kennedy's relationship with Kate Wilson

It's the pattern we've seen in the 10+ years since we found out that #SpyCops existed, familiar to other victims of state wrongdoing. First they ignore it, then they may admit a little as damage limitation, but then clamp down and deny everything. It is institutional corruption.
The 'bad apples/ rogue officers' line is a proven lie. Why else would the police's entire institutional machinery automatically close ranks to protect wrongdoers if it thought they'd gone off mission & undermined the police's purpose & good name?
The complete lack of any #SpyCops whistleblowers beyond @realspycop is not only damning of the Met as an institution but of every individual officer who knows more than they're saying, siding with abusers against their victims, prolonging & compounding the damage they've done.
