on sale giving parisians some joy division in the corona crisis but we pass the time cooking and eating so what do they cook a little production lots of hearty dishes. and sauerkraut and some more. people to contact more from better and i'm sure 1st i'm going to make a scallop carpaccio then i'll sautee the scallops insulted butter in serve them on a bed of leaks we treat ourselves to good food we cook it and share it with one another. from the back of the religious market fruit and vegetable trade of course which shows work day is coming to an end he moves unsold produce into the cold storage room he's proud to be helping so many of these fellow frenchmen get through the pandemic means that they're passionate about what we do. but this profession requires a loss of life because we're here at 3 in the morning if you didn't listen you do

it's deadly but it was pretty simple. in france to the end of the corona crisis is nowhere in sight still the trade is that this famous market near paris complaining it's just. the spy who left it's not just the title of a james bond movies that ring roger moore it's also the title of a chapter in the lives of british women like kate she thought she had met the man ob her dreams but after years of a happy relationship it turned out that the man she shared her life with was on a mission to collect information about her and fellow activists in fact she is not the only woman that this by took advantage of. lisa often went hiking with her boyfriend whenever they could they would get away together and enjoy being out in nature it was one of their hobbies lisa's face

isn't being shown in this report because it could negatively affect the clarification of her case. he was my life partner i really thought that we were at the beginning of something that you know we had a future together. lisa list together with mark for 6 years they spent a case since christmas and their nights together. they come in to your family life in such an intimate way i mean such i mean you know it's it seemed quite intrusive to think that he you know that when i found out who he really was to know that he'd been there and i was closest i miss you know the times when i'm when i've just lost my father and the 1st person i ring when i'm leaving the hospital is having just seen my my father die he's the 1st person i call so you know it's it's very close. 50 years ago lisa with

a dedicated environmental activist she took part in climate change demonstrations and in her group organized protests against power plants mark was always in on the action. years later while they were on holiday together she came across mark's id with a completely different name on it she was really an undercover police officer who'd been assigned to report on her and those around her. felt to me like the ground wrist moving and my feet like like the mountains went solid anymore it was really very destabilizing made me and made me afraid because i just didn't know what to believe what was true and what wasn't. several times a day mark would inform his police contact about what was happening in the environmental activists and after his cover was blown he agreed to be filmed to explain how his job worked you can used the words for

a. us government intelligence all left wing movement on the anti fascist movement on environmental what it means not infiltrating people in the. selling credit card carrying or serving at dawn or selling child children. that are such a joy infiltration people if you have a social conscience 7 or. whatever environmental activists planned protests like this one at a coal fired power plant at rochester mark would pass on info to his contacts in advance so the police knew how to prepare for the demonstration with just enough but not too many officers but doesn't fabricating a relationship cross the line for undercover police operations. anyone well we were falling in love you know i think things just happen. the police issued an official apology acknowledging that their agents went too far because after mark's

cover was blown more colleagues were unmasked at least 30 women were unknowingly in relationships with undercover police officers ok that was one of them she was also together with mark but before he met lisa cates pitched a tent in their garden so we could talk to her during the corona pandemic she's taking legal action against the police her case is now before the karpin court of human rights. what they were doing was terrible and the units were institutionally sexist and they were using women as an operational type to. teach accuses the police of contravening the european contents. and on human rights she says her right to privacy was violated because as her partner mark pried into all areas of her life she feels the police to mean to her.

the human rights court exists above all to identify when states abusing human rights and if we can establish that it is an abuse of human rights then that goes some way towards. making it preventing it from happening again and. still can't be sure of that although the british government has officially condemned the police tactics it hasn't acted accordingly in london an inquiry into undercover policing has been going on for months but has produced surprisingly few results and the government itself has just able to bill in parliament that would expand rather than limit what undercover agents can do that would even allow them to break laws much to the surprise of fellow conservative m.p.'s and top bill deals with participation in criminal conduct by covert schuman and intelligence sources

this is an important and unique tactic by working their way into the hearts of criminal groups choose are able to access intelligence that other investigate she powers may simply never detect how is that using the human rights act to underpin the rights of us it is the way in which agencies are required to act under the spill is that they cannot actually way that is inconsistent with the convention rights. so british laws would offer no protection against too much spying only the european convention on human rights the police would have less control to fear in future. anybody working undercover for these organizations is going to have a. route to be authorized to commit crime and to face no legal consequence for that so i think it's definitely still going on lisa relationship with mark ended a decade ago but it's hard for her to find closure as she fears this kind of spying

will never end. i'm now finding 10 years later that there are still new depths to be to be you know these new things coming out a new reasons to be angry all over again. mark spent more than 7 years spying on his partner yet the information he obtained never led to a single conviction. we now take you to a paradise for many animals the she is it's located in romania in the danube delta to be precise in the village of left you'll find a forest with wild horses and now it's maybe attempting to jump on one of them and ride into the fans but the horses probably prefer being left alone. to move down you don't just once a few retreats for wild horses if you read. the fine shelter in the nature of the

d.t.s. nearest an extraordinary place for not only some birches group but also limitless existence or vision is to keep you see a. tropical forest in the world this is because of the. migration of the birds who came from north of africa and bring some seeds from that. in doesn't know if you're some plants adapt to the climate or. all the speak wild forces appear next to us to take a refreshing break at a pool in the forests a few years ago some conservationists voiced concerns about the large number of forces eating away the unique forests. i think he works with an animal welfare organization which is organizing birth control for the horses this week to help to maintain the balance between the forest and the horses. these horses are

unique in europe you can't find so many wild horses together in one place anywhere else by. the sight of wild horses trotting feeley see nature is magical however it is taking 30 years to research awareness for the benefit force protection. for them or the people here don't have many opportunities to earn money 10 years ago people sold a horse to a slaughterhouse for 20 euros i told them that they could earn much more by keeping the horses alive now a villager who shows the horses to tourists can earn up to 400 euros a day. protecting the wild horses is cookie's life mission. he is convinced that the forests and the forces can continue to strive together in harmony. well those beautiful
