My new article about the intimidation of people who expose police wrongdoing seems rather timely.
The Guardian have just released footage showing how members of FITwatch (who monitor police filming of protests) were singled out, assaulted and then arrested at the Kingsnorth climate camp. They were remanded in prison for four days. Then - surprise - all charges were dropped.
Watch the Guardian film and judge for yourself.
