The increasingly grumpy argument regarding who
is allowed to photograph and keep files on whom in this sceptred
isle - and who is then allowed to see such files - took a new
twist today. It emerged that a person featured on a police headshot
gallery of "extremist" arms protesters is actually
believed by many activists to have been a spy for the weapons
industry.
On Monday the Guardian published
a copy of a police "spotter card", said to have been
dropped by a copper at an arms-fair protest in 2005, featuring
headshots of people the fuzz like to keep tabs on. This was
said to have angered many in the anti-armsbiz activist community,
who might not care to have their day-job employers or other
people made aware that the plods class them as possible "domestic
extremists".
Now it has emerged,
as one would really expect with any group of possible activists,
that at least one of the individuals pictured may have been
a spy for the weapons trade. The Grauniad - which now seems
to have blanked out quite a lot of the faces on its rogues/heroes
gallery, presumably at the request of those featured - says
that Martin Hogbin was on the card.
Hogbin, at one time an official at Campaign Against Arms Trade,
has been accused of supplying information to corporate security
spooks in the pay of Britain's number one arms firm, BAE Systems
plc. He has always denied this, but no longer works for CAAT.
