Met Police Agent Provocateurs

[Jan Klimkowski]

Paul - here's the activists' account of how the undercover identities were discovered, with some self-serving quotes from Kennedy/Stone via the Mail:

In an interview with the Mail on Sunday, Kennedy confirmed that the evidence in question consisted of tape recordings he had made, which police withheld from defence lawyers. Under the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act of 1996, the police are duty-bound to make the CPS and the defence team aware of the evidence they have compiled. The Independent Police Complaints Commission is currently investigating whether Nottinghamshire Police made available all the evidence they had to the CPS.

Kennedy told the Mail, "The truth of the matter is that the tapes clearly show that the six defendants who were due to go on trial had not joined any conspiracy. The tapes I made meant that the police couldn't prove their case.

"I just assumed that the police would naturally put my tapes into evidence. Clearly I was wrong".

The six were accused of conspiring to shut down Ratcliffe-on-Soar power station in Nottingham. The court case followed the mass arrests of 114 people holding a meeting at Iona school in Nottingham on April 13, 2009. Among those arrested was Kennedy.

In December, 20 of the arrested were found guilty of conspiracy to commit aggravated trespass and sentenced to community orders. Two of the defendants were ordered to pay costs totalling £1,500. Their lawyers are considering an appeal based on Kennedy's involvement. Lawyer Mike Schwarz said, "The police allowed this trial, unlike the later one, to run all the way to conviction. In the light of events last week, this must be seen as a potential miscarriage of justice."

Kennedy infiltrated the environmental movement under the name of Mark Stone, playing a leading role in organising, financing and directing campaigns and protests. One of the six acquitted, Danny Chivers, said of Kennedy, "We're not talking about someone sitting at the back of the meeting taking noteshe was in the thick of it."

Kennedy had been "involved in organising" the Ratcliffe-on-Soar protest for months, Chivers said. The police "could have stopped it at the start".

Kennedy's identity was established last October, after a passport containing his real name was found by his activist girlfriend. Kennedy then confessed to six of the group members, before disappearing. Shortly after, he left the Metropolitan Police and is understood to be living abroad.

So, one of "Mark Stone'" activist girlfriends found his passport in the name of Mark Kennedy. This was whilst six of the activist group were on trial for conspiracy to commit aggravated trespass at a power station.

The girlfirend confronted Kennedy who revealed his police identity and Kennedy/Stone then disappeared into Daily Mail land.

However not before the following occurred:

In a phone recording between Kennedy and a member of the environmental group obtained by the BBC's Newsnight programme, he revealed he was not the only police officer active as an undercover agent. "I'm not the only one by a long shot," he said, adding the police operations were "like a hammer to crack a nut."

In the Mail on Sunday interview, he said he was aware of at least 15 agents who had worked undercover in the environmental movement, with 4 of these still active.

When his cover was blown, Kennedy confirmed to the environmental group that a female protester based in Leeds, whom several activists had suspected of being an undercover police officer, was also a spy.

As well as the two police agents identified in his case, another undercover police spy, known as "Officer B", was revealed in Saturday's Guardian, who had spent four years with an anarchist group in Cardiff.

So, that's the activists' version of the route for the exposure and identification of these police undercover assets.

If this is correct, and it's certainly plausible, then ACPO plc and the National Public Order Intelligence Unit (NPOIC) who were runinng these infiltrators, had a serious problem. They were bound to pull any assets out of active service whose identity was presumed blown. In addition, some of the undercovers, like Clown Cop, had already disappeared -causing concern to their former protest movement buddies.

So, the identity of the undercover assets would be confirmed by their historical, or immediate, flight from the protest movement.

Was there then an attempt at damage limitation by ACPO, NPOIC, and the British deep state? Absolutely.

Note The Guardian piece here revealing cooperation with ACPO and NPOIC to disguise the identity of an asset by pixellating a photo of her, and not naming her:

The controversy over a police surveillance network embedded in the environmental protest movement has deepened dramatically after the Guardian identified a second undercover officer who spent years living a double life as an activist.

The woman's name has been known to a group of six activists since Mark Kennedy the police infiltrator identified by the Guardian on Monday as having spent seven years inside the movement claimed she was also a police officer when confronted by them about his own identity last October.

Senior police chiefs said they were concerned for the safety of the second spy, and a major operation involving several UK forces is now under way to identify other operatives whose safety may have been compromised by Kennedy.

The second spy spent four years living as an environmental activist in Leeds, gaining the trust of dozens of activists and playing a central role in planning a demonstration to shut down Drax power station in North Yorkshire.

Her deployment ended in 2008, when she told activist friends she was leaving town for personal reasons. The Guardian has established the identity of the officer, who is from a force in the south-east of England, but has decided, after representations from senior police officers, to refer to her only as Officer A, and to use pixellated pictures of her.

I also agree that much of the journalism has been execrable, pursusing a tabloid agenda, and failing to pursue the implications of British deep state agent provocateur and false flag activity.

However, my own judgement is that this story did not emanate from MI6. My current working hypothesis is that the identity of Kennedy/Stone did emerge as described above, and that the deep state has been scrambling around in desperate damage limitation mode ever since.

Has MSM helped to limit the damage? Yes.

However, the fundamental point remains. It is now proven, on the record, in the public domain, that undercover assets infiltrated protest groups in Britan, Iceland, Germany, Ireland and elsewhere, incited these groups on occasion to commit criminal acts, and allegedly provided material assistance.

This is the key message that the British deep state wants to suppress, and since it's failed to do this, make us forget about.

The role, or not, of MI6 is, in my judgement, a secondary matter here.
