Overt surveillance measures are being used to intimidate activists organising against the Sheffield Libdem conference.
Activists organising against the Libdem conference in Sheffield, 11-13th March, are reporting
* Police cars parked outside their homes watching them leeve to travel to work or to take children to school
* Being followed and met outside of organising meetings
* Plain and uniformed officers approaching activists and greeting them by name.
Don't worry though, those who queued to up to vote Nick Clegg into Parliament will be queuing up to blockade him from his conference.
Plenty is still planned.

The police are trying to intimidate people from taking action. Don't let them do that. Take a leaf out of the Fitwatch book
Without giving them any more information than they already have, document their activities, photograph and film them. Gather all the information you can on these bullies and publicise it far and wide. Put it on spotter sheets and give them copies after taking precautions to prevent them gathering fingerprints or DNA from the sheets. Put it on the web. We know from Fitwatch trials that the police claim to feel intimidated by this.
