Police spies targeting campaign groups across Europe are the focus of a European Parliament event on 6 September, where MEPs will hear from activists directly affected by undercover police, along with experts on state surveillance.

Eight women who were affected by relationships with undercover officers, and who started Police Spies Out of Lives, have issued the following statement in response to the draft new guidelines for undercover policing issued by the College of Policing. The guidelines are out for consultation until midnight August 10th 2016.

On Friday 15 January 2016, the Metropolitan Police withdrew their defence in a case brought against them over undercover police relationships.

On Friday 15 January 2016 a legal case over undercover police relationships returns to the High Court in a renewed battle to force police to follow normal court procedure and issue disclosure documents in a case hinging on police infiltration and deception.
