What an incredible man he was, so glad I got to attend the funeral on Thursday and meet his wonderful family and friends. Working for Gerry was such an adventure.

I was lucky too, I didn't come across TAP until issue 26 but it was still possible to order all of the old back issues.
I was always so excited when I came back from school and a copy of TAP was waiting for me. I got to meet Andy at one of the Wembley shows, though I was a very shy teenager at the time.
I am very honored to be included in the last printed edition of @searchlightmag.bsky.social , appropriately enough my article appears just after one by Tim Hepple. Along with Ray Hill, Tim was one of the people who inspired me to volunteer to work as a Mole.
I've watched the whole series now. Really brilliant from ITV and the brave women, incredibly moving.
I bought my very first copy of Searchlight 33 years ago from Gerry at an anti-fascist demonstration, against the BNP HQ at Welling. One thing led to another, I volunteered to work undercover for Searchlight and later found myself inside that very same HQ or the Bookshop as we called it.
