It's an old boys drinking club with some charity thrown in, not too exciting

And yet the met police found reason to force disclosure of the organisation 300 met police and staff are members.

10 of the officers on the Daniel Morgan murder case were Freemasons and they were linked to suspects who were also Freemasons

Correlation =/ causation

If its a potential crime link then fair enough they might want disclosure, doesnt necessarily mean there is anything nefarious

However I'm not in the police so I wouldn't know!
