Untouchables: Dirty Cops, Bent Justice and Racism in Scotland Yard Book
With Scotland Yard in the dock now more than ever the public needs to know why the police cannot be trusted to investigate their own corruption. Untouchables a five year investigation which the Yard tried to stop provides the essential context to the phone hacking and other scandals currently engulfing Britain's most powerful police force. Republished after eight years it was the first book to question the cosy relationship between the Yard and sections of the media to explain why the police are incapable of investigating themselves and to expose the lack of independence in the new police watchdog.
