The UK government has never published a list of books it considers 'banned'. However, since 9 11, an increasing number of citizens have been arrested, prosecuted and jailed for simply possessing books. Who makes the subjective decisions on whether simply owning a book should be a criminal offence? Why does the justice system consider itself fit to police human knowledge? And how does this approach affect those who don't fit into the system's idea of what constitutes 'normal'?In this gripping true account, former PC Alexander Linleigh details his tumultuous journey as an autistic police officer caught in a web of corruption and injustice. Vividly portraying Alex's introduction to British policing, the book recalls manipulation of statistics, institutional discrimination, assaults, and dishonesty. This leads to his eventual dismissal, where key evidence was withheld and police witnesses were threatened.Following his return to civilian life, Alex finds himself pursued by a world he thought he had left behind. Now experiencing lies, wrongful arrests, violations of his human rights, and unlawful surveillance authorised at the highest levels, this book reveals a disturbing fallacy about power and accountability that should prompt us all to question: What is it that we value the most?
