Activists from #occupyLSX unmasked and surrounded an undercover police officer who had infiltrated their protest on Wednesday, a video reveals today.

The hoodie-wearing police officer admits to a crowd that he was an undercover office.

The incident took place when activists from #occupyLSX were trying to protest at the offices of the mining company Xstrata

When unmasked, the man admits: “Yeah, I’m a Met Police officer, yeah.”

One protester says in response: “He has no uniform and no [badge] number… we have no way of identifying him, so how are we supposed to complain about him.”

Activists said they unmasked at least seven undercover officers that day.
