Dave Jones (timeline)

Dave 'Bob the Builder' Jones, was a undercover with the Special Demonstration Squad and the National Public Order Intelligence Unit. In 2001 he targeted Movement Against Monarchy and the W.O.M.B.L.E.S., while from 2005-2007 he infiltrated environmental groups London Rising Tide and the Camp for Climate Action. The following pages provide an overview of some of the groups he targeted to put the deployment into context, and provide timelines of events he would have possibly partaken in or known of.
* Main Profile
==London Rising Tide==
The international Rising Tide network emerged as a grassroots network of climate change activists in the wake of the November 2000 United Nations Climate Conference of Parties (COP6). An early member was the London Rising Tide group which still exists and has played a leading role in highlighting climate change issues in Britain. It also forged links with a broad cross-section of civil society groups focusing on climate change.See for example, the 2004 leaflet 'The Day After Tomorrow' leaflet, naming Rising Tide, Friends of the Earth and People & Planet. RisingTide.org.uk, November 2004 (accessed 1 March 2019).
Engaging in multiple actions and campaigns, it has taken a civil disobedience approach, most of its activities focused on education, lawful protest and peaceful disruption of events such as leafleting, banner drops, etc. with a particular emphasis on tackling 'greenwashing'.
Much of its early focus was around COP meetings, and carbon trading schemes. In 2003 and 2004 it targeted BP and other companies involvement in the Baku-Ceyhan oil pipeline.London Rising Tide, London Rising Tide Highlight BP's Sponsorship Shenanigans, Indymedia UK, 8 July 2003 (accessed 1 Februrary 2019).London Rising Tide, London Rising Tide action at the British Museum, Indymedia UK, 8 July 2003 (accessed 1 Februrary 2019).London Rising Tide, Rising Tide Banner Drop - Oil Festival Hall, Indymedia UK, 11 April 2004 (accessed 1 Februrary 2019).2003 actions against Baku-Ceyhan pipeline, RisingTide.org.uk, 9 November 2004 (accessed 1 February 2019).The Baku-Ceyhan pipeline campaign, RisingTide.org.uk, 9 November 2004 (accessed 1 February 2019).. In early 2005, LRT was active in the G8 Climate Action Group, which organised a number of protests around climate change and the G8 Summit that year.
In 2004, LRT had founded the Art Not Oil campaign (which became a stand-alone group, independent of London Rising Tide in 2008,About Us, Art Not Oil (organisation website), 2014 (accessed 1 February 2019).), working closely with groups such as PLATFORM on highlighting the use of corporate sponsorship of the arts by fossil fuel companies. 
During the time of Dave Jones' infiltration, this manifested as a focus on the sponsorship of cultural events by fossil fuel companies, particularly oil firms. Thus, an early campaign of Art Not Oil which Jones participated in was a series of protests focused on the Natural History Museum, over its choice of oil conglomerate Shell as sponsor for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition and award. This campaign eventually forced Shell to withdraw in January 2008.Andy Rowell, Shell Ditched As Sponsor Of Top Wildlife Competition, Oil Change International (PriceOfOil.org), 29 January 2008 (accessed 1 February 2019).Tom Levitt, Anger at opening of Shell-sponsored climate change exhibition, The Ecologist, 6 December 2010 (accessed 1 February 2019). 
Thus, in the second half of 2005, the group was focusing on the exhibition, though also raising awareness of the Rossport Solidarity Camp, a campaign in the west of Ireland where a local community were struggling hard against an unwanted off-shore oil development by Shell.Undercover Research Group: review of RisingTide.org.uk website, February 2019.
By then, the group had settled into a pattern of weekly meetings at the London Action Resource Centre on Fieldgate Street, East London, with a monthly film showing on the last Thursday of each month to welcome new people.Welcome to London Rising Tide, RisingTide.org.uk, 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019).sky, london rising tide film nigth presents, Indymedia UK, 23 December 2004 (accessed 1 February 2019). These meetings were open to all interested, and the group took the approach of welcoming all who came along.Undercover Research Group: interview with 'Tony' (alias), London Rising Tide campaigner, January 2019. In May 2005 it described itself as: sky, London Rising Tide G8 Film nite Extravaganza, Indymedia UK, 26 May 2005 (accessed 1 February 2019).
:: London Rising Tide takes creative direct action on the root causes of climate change, and promotes socially just, ecological alternatives to fossil fuel madness. We have planning meetings most Thursday nights at LARC. 
In the 2005-2007 period, London Rising Tide was one of a number of similar groups based in different cities and regions around the UK, each carrying out their own actions and coming together under national gatherings. A number of these groups had emerged in the wake of the 2006 Drax Climate Camp where emphasis had been placed on forming local networks of campaigners. With London Rising Tide as a leading group in the network and acting as a focal point for campaigning, Jones was well placed to learn what was taking place across the country in terms of climate change activities, particularly where there were other strongly active groups such as Bristol.For instance, Bristol Rising Tide protested inside the BBC Wildlife Magazine offices over Shell's involvement in the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition on 11 December 2007. See BBC Wildlife Magazine HQ Visited, RisingTide.org.uk, 13 December 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019).
LRT was also supportive of the Camp for Climate Action, its members taking active roles in the group both at Drax powerstation in 2006 and preparing around the Heathrow Climate Camp in 2007. London Rising Tide meetings played a role in assembling and planning for the 'London Neighbourhood' part of Climate Camp in the run up to DraxCamp for Climate Action: London neighbourhood planned, RisingTide.org.uk, 5 May 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019). and HeathrowCamp for Climate Action 14th-21st August 2007: London Neighbourhbood, RisingTide.org.uk, 22 June 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019). Climate Camps. It also took part in actions in solidarity with other campaigns protesting against fossil fuel and big oil, including Rossport Solidarity Campaign, where it collaborated on a number of occasions with Rhythms of Resistance Samba Band to blockade Shell garages in London.Rossport Solidarity: Rolling Shell Blockade, RisingTide.org.uk, 5 May 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019).Rising Tide Target Shell’s Revolting Reputation on Saro-Wira Day, RisingTide.org.uk, 5 May 2007 (accessed 1 February 2019).
London Rising Tide members were also active with other climate change and peace movement groups and had previously been involved in anti-arms campaigning, CND and Reclaim the Streets.

Despite a heavy police presence, one activist managed to clamber on the glass canopy of the building to unfurl a banner reading ‘RBS: The Oil Bank of Scotland’.
