This interview is truly shocking.

When I was first picked up myself by Plain clothes Police and they started to drive me into the countryside - I really thought myself a was going to be "got rid of" - luckily it was sorted out.

The amount of fear that the new ACPO led Stasi is creating in the UK is like this.

They dont have ID - they dont tell you who they are - and they basically use Pysch Ops on you to try and reduce you to crying on the floor. In this case the journalist was so afraid of them that she wet herself.

This is the UK in 2009. I cant stress too much that this is not an isolated incident but is happening on the streets of the UK every day. The Police are out of control.

We can still speak out - as this journalist is doing - but it does not change the fact that it is happening.

We should not be afraid - we have to all stand up together against this terror from within.

I was picked up by 2 detectives when I was about 16 and taken to a police station-absolutely terrified-about a drug related manner.

I become very calm in a crisis. In passing I mentioned that I had been staying with an aunt who owned a pub-her silent partner was a well known London gangster.

It was like I'd mentioned I was Royalty-their manner changed instantly and I was driven home with no charges. When I told my aunt she said.."bloody right-I pay those 2 and their mates a small fortune every month and they practically drink the joint dry with free booze"

The page only gives me one sentence under a heading, so there is no story for me to assess.

There should be a video and a play arrow Cat.
