On 1 July, the undercover policing inquiry heard an apology from the Met police to women who were deceived into ‘deceitful, abusive and manipulative’ relationships with undercover officers without knowing their true identity.
The women who were spied on said: ‘an apology is not enough’. Their campaign, Police Spies Out Of Lives, are asking for transparency: ‘The inquiry must reveal all of the officers’ cover names and what they went on to do after their roles in the undercover unit.’
