About the Event

As the public inquiry continues into what’s become known as the ‘Spycops’ controversy, veteran activist and podcaster Tom Fowler will give an absorbing insight into the operations of undercover police units which targeted and infiltrated his and other campaign groups, often spending years masquerading as genuine members while they bent rules and abused trust to gather information. 


Tom will also give an update on revelations from the latest phase of the public inquiry, due to begin on 13th October. An interim report from the long-running probe has already found these spying activities ‘unjustified’ and officers guilty of ‘serious wrongs.’  This fascinating free entry presentation will run alongside the Newport Radical Bookfair. Wrth i’r ymchwiliad cyhoeddus barhau i’r hyn sydd bellach yn cael ei adnabod fel y ddadl ‘Spycops’, bydd yr ymgyrchydd profiadol a’r podledwr Tom Fowler yn rhoi cipolwg hynod ddiddorol ar weithrediadau unedau heddlu cudd a dargedodd ac a dreiddiodd i’w grŵp ef a grwpiau ymgyrchu eraill, gan dreulio blynyddoedd yn aml yn esgus bod yn aelodau gwirioneddol wrth dorri rheolau a chamddefnyddio ymddiriedaeth i gasglu gwybodaeth.



Bydd Tom hefyd yn rhoi’r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddatgeliadau o’r cam diweddaraf o’r ymchwiliad cyhoeddus, sydd i ddechrau ar 13 Hydref. Mae adroddiad interim o’r ymchwiliad hirfaith eisoes wedi canfod bod y gweithgareddau ysbïo hyn yn ‘anghyfiawn’ a bod yr heddweision yn euog o ‘gamweddau difrifol.’ Bydd y cyflwyniad hynod ddiddorol hwn, mynediad am ddim, yn cael ei gynnal ochr yn ochr â’r Ffair Lyfrau Radical Casnewydd.
