Want to know why the police shouldn’t investigate themselves?
Read ‘Untouchables’ - The five year investigation Scotland Yard
tried to stop. It’s the first book in 30 years to expose how Britain’s
most powerful force really deals with dirty and racist cops.
From the 1983 Brinks Mat robbery, through the Jill Dando and Damilola
Taylor murders to the Royal butler trials, ‘Untouchables’
reveals the cover-ups, double standards and miscarriages of justice
during the Yard’s phoney war on corruption.
After the Stephen Lawrence scandal, New Labour promised a fully
independent police watchdog. Instead, it has delivered the IPCC, a body
stacked with retired cops led by one of the Yard’s most trusted
servants.
‘Untouchables’ exposes how discredited policing methods
used secretly in the war on corruption are set to return in the new wars
on crime and terror.
It lays bare the true legacy of soon to retire commissioner Sir John
Stevens, his predecessor, Lord Paul Condon and the man waiting in the
wings, Sir Ian Blair.
