Yeah.

Ultimately, the Metropolitan Police in the UK finally rolled this sell up in February 2023 and the convictions are landing now in 2025.
speaker_0HOST
2:35
But what we're looking at today isn't just the spy craft or, you know, the gadgets.
speaker_1HOST
2:39
What's fascinating here is how the whole thing was actually powered because the gadgets, you know, they make for great headlines.
Ken MacdonaldHOST
10:32
Yeah, well, of
Tim OwenHOST
10:32
course, last week's episode with Gavin Miller, the electoral law, political donation expert, we discussed the implications of the verbatim investigation, the Channel 4 verbatim investigation, and subsequently the Metropolitan Police have announced... that they've opened or continued or expanded the investigation.
Tim OwenHOST
10:52
Now, of course, neither Farage, neither James or Dan Jukes has been arrested.
Tim OwenHOST
10:58
They deny any allegation of criminal misconduct, and that's important to make that point.

Tim OwenHOST
30:37
But that's a separate question from how is it possible under our system that this inquiry that's announced in 2015 is still going 11 years later and huge parts of the terms of reference are yet to be covered.
Tim OwenHOST
30:52
I mean, just to remind everybody the background to this, The trigger for the launching of this inquiry into undercover policing goes back to the Stephen Lawrence Independent Review, which was conducted by Mark Ellison, QC, as he then was.
Tim OwenHOST
31:08
He was commissioned by the Home Secretary to look into corruption in the original Stephen Lawrence murder investigation, and then that was extended to undercover policing after allegations from a former Metropolitan Police Special Demonstration Squad officer, Peter Francis.
Tim OwenHOST
31:25
which reveals some absolutely outrageous behaviour whereby the Lawrence family justice campaign was infiltrated by a metropolitan police officer who's codenamed N81.
Milo EdwardsHOST
55:35
So I took this from The Guardian.
Milo EdwardsHOST
55:37
Fearing that he was going to expose Profumo and trigger a national security crisis, the documentary, The Guardian's talking about a TV documentary here, highlights a secret meeting on the 27th of March, 1963, between the Home Secretary, Henry Brooke, the Chief Constable of the Metropolitan Police, Sir Joseph Simpson, and the head of the security service, Roger Hollis, to discuss what action could be taken against Ward.
Milo EdwardsHOST
55:55
Now, very interestingly, Roger Hollis, it has been credibly alleged many times, was spying for the Russians.
Milo EdwardsHOST
56:00
Right, jeez.
Milo EdwardsHOST
58:20
We don't know you.
Milo EdwardsHOST
58:21
Goodbye.
Milo EdwardsHOST
58:23
So basically this stakeout that the Metropolitan Police do of Ward's house and business, and they start interviewing all of his clients being like, do you know about all of the underage prostitutes that he, do you know anything about them? They're doing that thing where they're asking a question, but they're really telling them things.
Milo EdwardsHOST
58:37
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
JJ AnisiobiHOST
21:00
Yeah.
James WalkerHOST
21:00
You're a member of the Metropolitan Police, right?
JJ AnisiobiHOST
21:02
Mm-hmm.
James WalkerHOST
21:02
You're gonna get, if you bring this stuff up and if, then they find out, you're gonna get fired.
Nick FerrariHOST
17:02
This, of course, now brings into stark contrast, or sharp relief, however you want to put it, the conversation that's been going on between them and the King about their security.
Nick FerrariHOST
17:11
So what happens now? Let's bring into the conversation Dal Babu, who's former Chief Superintendent of the Metropolitan Police.
Nick FerrariHOST
17:17
Dal, good to hear, and indeed, good to see you again.
Nick FerrariHOST
17:19
This all now goes to RAVEC, which is the Royal and VP Executive Committee, doesn't it? What will RAVEC do now, Dal? Good morning.

Nick FerrariHOST

Finally then, as the senior government representative, the other front page stories, concerns over the safety of Prince Harry and Duke of Sussex's two children.
Nick FerrariHOST
47:48
I'm sure you're aware they've had to move school after just two days due to security concerns.
Nick FerrariHOST
47:53
Surely now they are deserving of some form of Metropolitan Police or other security, aren't they?
Jonathan ReynoldsGUEST
47:58
Well, look, again, I believe our system of protection is proportionate, it's needs assessed.
Bobby CapucciHOST

Page told The Telegraph earlier in 2026, I contacted Thames Valley Police in connection with its investigation and made it clear that I had information arising from my firsthand experiences of former Metropolitan Police Royal Protection Officer.
Bobby CapucciHOST
10:30
I received no response.
Bobby CapucciHOST
10:32
I have now formally documented my firsthand information in a written statement lodged with the FBI.

Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
2:37
And in fact, Rolf Harris, for my work, was somebody that came out of Utrecht and Jimmy Savile.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
2:46
You know, as a result of the Jimmy Savile investigation, I subsequently got very close to Operation Utrecht and worked very close with them, the Metropolitan Police Inquiry.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
2:55
And it was in fact my tweet that broke the information that Rolf Harris was under investigation for sexual offences.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
3:02
And I remember making that tweet from a piece of information that I got, which was basically the police had tried to speak to him a couple of days before and he wasn't available.

Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
11:42
But the thing is, at this point of when these offences are going on, he'd already committed offences in Australia prior to this, which was as he was growing up.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
11:51
Because what subsequently happened is we obviously do this.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
11:55
This investigation happens by the Metropolitan Police, and he's subsequently found guilty in relation to the charges against him.
Mark Williams-ThomasHOST
12:03
But we then start to look further.

In 1981, black communities in Brixton rose up in bloody confrontation with the Met Police, against a backdrop of racism, severe economic recession and high unemployment.

They followed on from similar events in Bristol the year before, and the summer of 81 brought further uprisings across England, including in Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds.

It was a critical moment in the movement for social justice in Britain leading to landmark recommendations for police reform and local regeneration policies as well as, crucially, a new sense of Black British empowerment.
Nigel FarageGUEST

Every single day.
Nigel FarageGUEST
43:27
A complaint gets put in, I'm under investigation, whether it's the Electoral Commission, whether it's the Parliamentary Standards, whether it's the Metropolitan Police, uh, and I'm sure there's a whole load more.
Nigel FarageGUEST
43:37
Um, so I, I, I mean, I didn't used to believe in the idea of the deep state.
Nigel FarageGUEST
43:42
I thought that was an online conspiracy theory, but I'm literally seeing the mass ranks of the entirety of our establishment doing everything they can to make the job as difficult for us as they possibly can.
