Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 February 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

Last month, a number of noble Lords in the Committee heard from some of the brave women from the campaign group Police Spies Out of Lives. These women were the victims of spy cops who deceived them into long-term intimate relationships that even included the bearing of children. The Metropolitan Police was forced by way of civil litigation to pay out hundreds of thousands of pounds in damages before the CHIS Act came along with its purpose of immunity for all.
