This week we’re talking about the policing of animal rights activism. Mark Fitzpatrick joins us to share some experiences from the 90s, including one particular attempt to sabotage a fox hunt that turned incredibly violent.
We place this in a broader context with Dr Nathan Stephen-Griffin’s to think about the politics of policing such activity. Referencing Spycops we see the role that power plays in these events.
