A sixth police officer has been unmasked as an undercover spy in the protest movement.

The latest officer was reported to have been embedded in an anti-capitalist group for four years under the fake name of Simon Wellings. Wellings inadvertently phoned a campaigner with the Globalise Resistance anti-capitalist group on his mobile phone while discussing photographs of demonstrators with another officer at a police station.

we were meant to have a proper procedure for exposing someone as a cop/informer now? Not just random posts.
