Undercover Policing and Trade Unions: The Political and the Personal
Event Information
About this event
The Undercover Policing Inquiry (UCPI) will begin hearing evidence in June 2020. Our conference will offer an excellent opportunity for trade unionists to review its progress and become involved with campaigning on this issue. This date also coincides with the anniversary of the apology from the Metropolitan Police to the first seven women from Police Spies Out Of Lives, and the conference is timed to link to the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. By bringing together trade unionists, activists and campaigners the conference will strengthen our campaign to ensure the UCPI is not a cover up but aims to expose the truth of undercover political policing and strengthen our struggle for justice and the protection of human rights.
