UK police ’spotter card’ leaked

Spotter cards: What they look like and how they work - The Guardian 25/10/09
This kind of highly confidential document – pictured above – is rarely seen by the public.
These so-called "spotter cards" are issued by police to identify individuals they consider to be potential troublemakers because they have appeared at a number of demonstrations.
The photographs are drawn from police intelligence files. This card was apparently dropped at a demonstration against Britain's largest arms fair in 2005.
Golly. Wouldn't want to be the cop that lost this.
