Guardian: Operation Rockingham

21-11-2003 12:20

In an interview in the Scottish Sunday Herald in June, Ritter said: "Operation Rockingham [a unit set up by defence intelligence staff within the MoD in 1991] cherry-picked intelligence.

Police Behaviour at Bush protests - Better or Worse? No more anti-terror search

21-11-2003 03:46

If you were searched in London, please let Liberty know, since they lost the High Court case and are due to appeal it next year.
