UNITE has welcomed what it called the “unmasking” of former spycop “Carlo Neri” whose real name is now alleged to be Carlo Soracchi.
Britain’s largest trade union made the statement after former BBC journalist Michael Gillard broke the news on Twitter earlier this week.
So-called Carlo Neri spent five years as an undercover police officer between 2001 and 2006 infiltrating anti-fascist groups, unions and the Socialist Party.
