This is old news, scandal ongoing since 2010. But I want to raise awareness, for people to know how far secret police can go to infiltrate you. Undercovers may literally screw you to get inside you, and penetrate your political group. Maybe they propose marriage to you. Maybe you even have their babies - as they are secretly spying on you, looking for some way to arrest you!
No matter if you agree or not with these political activist groups in these cases, there's only one word for what the police did:
Crime. Heinous, shocking to the conscience. Maybe done to you tomorrow. Undercover police are very dangerous, most places in the world (not only UK).
There is a Wikipedia article about this (

Police forced to name undercover officers who duped women

Police chiefs have been forced to confirm for the first time the identities of two undercover police officers who fathered children with campaigners from groups they had been sent to infiltrate.
A high court judge had ordered the Metropolitan police to make the disclosures after the force lost a legal battle. The Met had fought to keep secret the identities of the two undercover officers, Bob Lambert and Jim Boyling, since a group of women launched a lawsuit three years ago.
The women are suing the Met saying they have suffered intense emotional trauma and pain after learning they had been deceived into forming long-term relationships with undercover police officers.
[...]
Lambert had sexual relationships with four women while he infiltrated animal rights and environmental groups between 1984 and 1988. He fathered a son with one campaigner but abandoned both of them when the child was an infant.
[...]
Boyling had sexual relationships with at least three women while posing as an environmental activist, under the false name of Jim Sutton, between 1995 and 2000. He later married one of them and had two children with her before they divorced in 2008.
[...]
The Met had argued in court that they have a strict, unbreakable policy of neither confirming nor denying whether a particular individual was an undercover officer, in order to protect them and their operations.
Woman who was engaged to police spy sues Met over 'psychological torture'

A woman who accepted a marriage proposal from a married undercover police officer has begun legal action against the Metropolitan police, alleging that she suffered “abusive, cold-hearted, psychological torture” from his deception.
The woman, known only as Andrea, had a two-year relationship with the officer, during which time the spy told her that he wanted a baby with her but did not tell her that he already had a wife and child and was an undercover cop.

One woman, who claims one of the undercover officers fathered her child, is also planning a landmark legal claim that will test whether the Met [Metropolitan Police] should bear some financial responsibility for its upbringing, it was reported.
Search the web for many other articles, in many newspapers, or check Wikipedia sources.
IMO these "police" should all be in prison for first degree rape, and their bosses with them as accessories to rape.
Take some lesson from this. Whether you are left wing or right wing, male or female, doesn't matter. If you do only legal activity, also doesn't matter. What matters is if you dissent from very narrow range of officially accepted opinions.
If undercover police want to get you, they abuse every trust and human relationship. Nothing is sacred.DON'T be paranoid, but DO be vigilant.
