Campaign Opposing Police Surveillance: No Hiding Place for Spycops in Scotland

21 July 2016

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

"Support is growing for a Public Inquiry into the activities of undercover police in Scotland. Victims of blacklists, fellow trade unionists, environmentalists, Amnesty International, and politicians across the spectrum believe there should be some kind of Inquiry.

The main demands from campaigners are for an expansion of the Pitchford Inquiry (which is currently limited to England and Wales); or, for the Scottish government to launch a parallel Inquiry. Even the Scottish Tories support the call!"
