I won't do a corporate repost as we all know that isn't permitted here but The Grauniad has on the face of it, a useful guide here to help you find out what information might be held about you in police intelligence files with a handy pro forma letter:

If enough activists take this up then it would be useful to know how far Plod has gone in spying on innocent people, and their system could be swamped with FOI requests further tying up resources.

Great new Indymedia UK website BTW - IMC UK rides again! The server seems to work faster - and securely hosted in whistle-blower friendly Iceland. Smart move!
