The #spycops inquiry has started publishing documents for Friday's preliminary hearing. So far it's submissions from the Met Police & BBC, as well as a note from the counsel to the inquiry. They give an idea of some likely topics that'll be covered tomorrow, let's take a look 🧵

Wonderful achievement by the #WASPI Campaign women activists & supporters. Last week showed that justice delayed does not have to mean justice denied, but the govt are still dragging their heels. Sign & share the petition below calling for a debate about rightful compensation 💜

Thatcher micro managed the policing of the Miners Strike. She wasn’t a visionary she was an inveterate liar.

Douglas Alexander Can you confirm you will:-

- support an inquiry into Orgreave and the Policing of the strike
- campaign for all convictions of miners arrested during the strike to be quashed
- compensation for all who were sacked after arrest on trumped up charges

It would be good to know?

Join us this Friday 15 March at Hemsworth #Miners social club #Fitzwilliam #Miners Strike #Miners Strike40 #Miners Strike40thAnniversary event. Looking forward to seeing you there

Starmer’s cursory praise of Thatcher’s ‘entrepreneurism’ failed to mention her amazing secret introduction of paramilitary police powers and micro management of the police during the miners strike. He’s losing his touch.

#Thatcher led a Tory Govt with a hostile, cruel, dangerous track record of lies cover ups, political interference & state sanctioned police violence in the #minersstrike criminalising strikers & protesters & destroying communities & decimating industry #NeverForgetNeverForgive

Hugely inspiring to address new cohort of Young Legal Aid Lawyers committee members just now; so happy that this organisation which we set up over 18 years ago is not only surviving but thriving. Sadly, needed more than ever to keep #legalaid going
