1984 BIJNA VOLTOOID IN GROOT-BRITTANNIË (2)- Nazi-Duitsland zou het niet kunnen verbeteren……….

Het volgende bericht ontving ik gisteren van theCanary. Hierin beschreven hoe men in Groot-Brittannië bezig is een leger van ‘snoopers’ op te zetten (snoopers: mensen die stiekem je zaken en leven onderzoeken). In de eerste tien jaar van deze eeuw, werden er al 40.000 ‘snoopers’, gerecruteerd, o.a. in de gezondheidssector…….. Intussen zijn er een half miljoen mensen in de publieke sector (waaronder het onderwijs) opgeleid tot snooper, waarvan 150.000 werkzaam in de gezondheidszorg……

Het gaat lekker in GB…………

Hier het artikel van the Canary:

The
government is training an army of snoopers, right across British
society

JANUARY 4TH, 2017  TOM COBURG

An
army of spies is being trained across the British Isles. They
are not ‘fifth columnists’ but the man in the pub, the woman on
the bus, and even your fellow worker. A series of training modules,
examined by The
Canary,
aims to recruit snoopers in communities and industry sectors
across British society.

Also
seen by The
Canary is
a document that provides guidance to police on the recruitment of
informers, as well as a presentation currently in use by Merseyside
Police that lists anti-capitalists as ‘extremists’.

An
army of snoopers

The Prevent
programme [pdf] claims
to combat terrorism and “radicalisation“.
It has featured the heavy hand of government at every stage of its
development. It has also attracted criticism from across the
political spectrum, including The
BBC, The
Telegraph, The
Guardian and The
New Statesman.

The
Canary can
now reveal that an ‘army’ of snoopers is being trained via a
series of Prevent
learning modules. These
form part of the government’s wider counter-terrorism strategy
(CONTEST
[pdf]).
The modules are a joint initiative of the College of Policing and the
Metropolitan Police and available via the NCALT e-learning
platform.

Prevent
training users can customise the modules by both geographic
area and industry sector.
Currently, the content is geared to the education and local authority
sectors. The introduction to the modules states that the health
sector is the next target. The police, fire service, voluntary
services, offender management, employment services, prisons,
community and youth justice sectors will also be targeted.

Behaviour
managers

In
the training modules, users – referred to as “behaviour managers”
– are asked to
look out for staff “becoming disrespectful”, “asking
inappropriate questions”, or displaying an “unhealthy use of the
internet”.

A catalogue
of resources [pdf] provides
behaviour managers with information on the Channel service
– a programme which “focuses on providing support at an early
stage to people who are identified as being vulnerable to being drawn
into terrorism” – and the opportunity to refer targets to
the appropriate authorities.

The
Canary asked
the College
of Policing and the Metropolitan Police for more information about
the Prevent learning modules and the number of people they aim to
train, but received no response.

Struggling
to get it right

Under
the Prevent programme, over half
a million public sector workers have
received separate training, of which at least 150,000 are NHS
‘safeguarding’ staff. Prevent
guidance also
places a duty on schools and other agencies to “have due regard to
the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism”.

The
programme has identified more
than 400 children aged 10 and under as “at risk” of ‘extremism’,
with a further 1,424 youngsters aged 11 to 15 as “at risk” of
‘radicalisation’.

But
Rights Watch UK continues to provide cases of
children wrongly reported via Prevent. And in March 2016, the
National Union of Teachers voted
overwhelmingly to
reject the programme.

According
to to
Maina Kiai, the UN’s special rapporteur on the right to freedom of
assembly, Prevent has:

“created
unease and uncertainty around what can be legitimately discussed in
public.

           He
added that Prevent “could end up promoting extremism, rather than
countering it”.

Is
Prevent counter-productive?

Conflating
political protest –
like anti-fracking and anti-capitalism movements
– with terrorism is one example of how Prevent sows the seeds of
distrust. The Home Office has been forced
to admit that
anti-fracking campaigners should not be labelled as extremists.

But
on 29 December 2016, The
Liverpool Echo ran a
story exposing
how official documents classed anti-fracking campaigners
alongside terrorist groups. It refers to a Merseyside Police
presentation given to schools, governors, colleges and childcare
providers, which listed anti-fracking activities as a “type of
extremism”.

In
response, DCI Sarah Kenwright of that constabulary denied neither the
currency nor validity of the presentation, saying:

“[The]
presentation [was] personally delivered by specialist Prevent
officers to partners and local businesses, to raise awareness and
improve understanding of the potential threats to the UK.”

Exclusive
to The
Canary,
here is a version of that presentation
[pdf] –
see slide 2:

Not
forgetting the army of informers

Complementing
Prevent (and GCHQ
mass surveillance)
is the everyday investigative work of the police. A redacted document
[pdf] authorised
by the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC) outlines the importance
of social media as a source for intelligence. The document, marked as
‘restricted’, also summarises (p6) the role of a ‘Covert Human
Intelligence Source’ (CHIS).

The
Intelligence Services Commissioner defines a
CHIS as (our emphasis):

“A
person who is a member of, or acting on behalf of, one of the
intelligence services or armed services who is authorised to obtain
information from people who do not know that this information will
reach the intelligence or armed services. A CHIS may be a member of
the public or an
undercover officer [UCO].”

According
to [pdf] a
Justice report, just under 40,000 CHISs were recruited in the first
decade of the 21st century alone.

What
about undercover officers?

A
2014 Network for Police Monitoring (Netpol) submission
[pdf, p2] argued
that:

“The
[CHIS] code fails to recognise the compelling allegations of
inappropriate intimate and sexual relationships entered into by
undercover police. There is no guidance on whether such relationships
are permitted, or the circumstances in which they may be considered
proportionate”.

In
the same year, Police Spies Out of Our Lives submitted that
police officers are “expressly forbidden from entering into
intimate or sexual relationships whilst in their undercover persona”.

In
November 2015, the police issued an apology:

“The
Metropolitan Police recognizes that this should never happen again
and the necessary steps must be taken to ensure that it does not”

But
the NPCC document – updated as recently as April 2016 and
authorised for adoption by all police forces – takes no account of
the Met’s statement. Nor does it reject infiltration by UCOs of
political groups.

The Investigatory
Powers Act [pdf] does
not address these issues either. (Meanwhile, the European Court of
Justice has declared the
Act’s indiscriminate retention of data unlawful.)

Clearly,
more updates are needed.
