Anyone can now ask if they are on the #GangsMatrix and the Met will answer unless there is a data protection exemption We encourage anyone subject to repeated stop and search or other ‘enforcement actions’ to submit a Subject Access Request to the Met to find out

The Met also conceded that there is an ‘unacceptably high rate’ of racial disproportionality in the #GangsMatrix, with the latest review showing that 80% of those named on it were Black

We were due in court next week, but the Met has admitted the #GangsMatrix violates human rights and "wholesale change" is needed

Those of us at Stoke Newington cop shop getting no info. We've called the Met Police press line who dismissed us saying "someone just walked in and died." So why have you hidden a police van under a tent? What are you trying to hide?

Replying to @MPSHackney
@MPSHackney are saying someone has died inside Stoke Newington Police Station and 'it's not being treated as suspicious'. Why is the whole area cordoned off? Why are armed police outside? Why have they built a tunnel to keep the public from view? WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO HIDE?

Hey @SkyNews these 1000s of people were grieving and marching in solidarity with the family of Chris Kaba who was murdered by the @metpoliceuk. If you'd attended the vigil instead of only reporting on *that* death you might not have got it so wrong

I am lost for words. Sky News reporting the Justice for Chris Kaba march as a tribute walk for the Queen's death. Disgraceful.

The people seen as dangerous by a white supremacist ableist society. Racist assaults are almost everyday occurrences in HMP Belmarsh. These cowards think their big walls grant them impunity. Let's show them, they wont. Shut down HMP Belmarsh ❤️‍🔥

You can't abolish cops or prisons without abolishing the other. The higher the category of the prison the more Muslim prisoners, the more prisoners of colour, the more Black prisoners, the more neurodivergent prisoners. Even more so in the segregation units

Cops kidnap people and disappear them into prisons. They leave our homes & communities absent of our loved ones, sometimes for decades, sometimes for life (Rest in power, Taylor)
