There has been a new uproar about police infiltration of protest movements after evidence emerged that undercover police officer Jim Boyling, who infiltrated the Reclaim the Streets anti-roads group, gave false evidence when prosecuted for his activism. Boyling kept up his fictional identity as “Jim Sutton” when prosecuted at Horseferry Road in 1997 – and was privy to confidential discussions in the defence team. John Jordan, convicted in this case, is now appealing against the verdict. Boyling was exposed in January. On 15 October, another former infiltrator was exposed . Five members of London Greenpeace confronted former special branch detective inspector Bob Lambert MBE at the “One Society, Many Cultures” anti-racist conference at the Trades Union Congress HQ in central London. Lambert infiltrated the anarchist group using the alias “Bob Robinson” between 1984 and 1988. It is possible that Lambert, who supervised other infiltrators, was also prosecuted while using his false identity. Another police infiltrator, Peter Black, told the Guardian this was a common practice. These revelations have delayed the publication of the Hogan-Howe report into the use of police spies. Boyling and Lambert both had sexual relationships with activists while undercover.
