The prog playing as I write is as mind boggling as the trailers suggest.
The beeb keep on calling him Lord Condom - however Lord Condon insists he didnt know narfin - which of course would be the case if there were secret investigations - but then who IS in charge of them ?
A bit like CQC all over again but this time the fella at the top is paid to know.

Well, that "Dispatches" programme, if the allegations are true, highlight apparently quite shocking malpractice by the police.
Bad enough that it appears that they were frantically trying anything to deflect attention from their own inadequacies [post Lawrence enquiry,there was then the revelations of a whole unit of undercover cops engaging in long term relationships,with at least one of them fathering a child, then disappearing; no apparent oversight; little or no public interest motivation for such investigations.
All of these reasons demonstrate why we should be concerned about state surveillance and an unfettered police force.
George Monbiot writes an interesting article on the issues raised by this programme and the Snowden revelations;

I was just boggled that someone could oversee a police officer having a child on the job as it were
and the police officers cover story is that he is a free spirit and will fly off somewhere at an indeterminate time in the future
so he does
and in authority everyone says - well that's that for 20y !
I was also a bit put out (cooming from up t North, and just after the Cregan trial) that if you can show a victim is a gang member or into droogz then it is absolutely OK to make no effort to solve his murder.

Your beloved Daily Mail sees why this matters in todays Editorial.
// Yet another betrayal. It has long been known that Neville and Doreen Lawrence were hideously let down by police, who treated their son’s murder as relatively unimportant because he was black.
Indeed, it was only after a tireless campaign by this newspaper that two of Stephen’s racist murderers were brought to justice, two decades after their crime.
Yet now it appears the Met’s handling of the case plumbed depths of iniquity, hitherto unimagined.
After their horrifying bereavement, the Lawrences were entitled to expect the full support of a force dedicated to tracking down their son’s killers.
Instead, a former undercover officer tells the Guardian, the family and their supporters became the targets of a police smear campaign to discredit their campaign for justice.
But what is so deeply disturbing is that these allegations fit an increasingly familiar pattern: whenever a public body bungles – whether the police, the Care Quality Commission or the BBC – its first instinct is not to learn from its mistakes, but to cover them up. //

Not as bad as I feared and not as good as I hoped....
Good u-tube track- just in case you use the phrase a lot - Bradley John Murdoch who was convicted of the murder in the Outback of Peter Falconio looked at the video of himself at a filling station and apparently pointed to the guy (himself) and exclaimed to the Police- that isnt me !
widely reported in the Oz press at the time.

I havent heard much of this lately - Duwayne Brooks the much traumatised companion of Steven L took £100,000 off the police following a successful case against them
and now tonight it comes out that altho Brooks was a witness for prosecution, they carried out infrusive surveillance on him and his lawyer whilst they were interviewed....
