Would you feel safe with The Met?

How would you know you've got "one of the good ones" and not one who doesn't even see you as a human being?

The Met are so fucking racist they'd probably pick on Ginger People....

Three years ago, I was director for London at the Independent Office for
Police Conduct, where my teams had done an incredible job investigating
misconduct inside Charing Cross police station. The subsequent report
uncovered victims of racism and abuse who were themselves serving
officers. It also uncovered a toxic culture of misogyny, racism, Islamophobia,
antisemitism, homophobia and ableism. Yes, really. — Three years ago, I was director for London at the Independent Office for Police Conduct, where my teams had done an incredible job investigating misconduct inside Charing Cross police station.

@Lazarou When I was growing up in Boston, we had two police forces: the regular Boston Police, and the Metropolitan Police Force.

The Mets were corrupt, abusive gangsters with a reputation for racist oppression. At one point, they threw a handicapped guy off a bridge.

They eventually disbanded the entire department.

No police force need be permanent.

Three years and nothing has changed, but to change you have to WANT to change and I don't think The Met or UKGOV wants their thug battalions to change, they serve a purpose in keeping Women and Minorities in their place....

...it's 'Institutional'

Why am I telling you this now? Because three years later the BBC's
undercover reporting shows that nothing has changed. Nothing. This is a
catastrophic failure of leadership at the highest levels by the Met. Iam
unapologetically scathing because of all the work, all the recommendations
that had been made previously. Everything had been agreed upon and
supposedly implemented. So how could this possibly happen again? — Why am I telling you this now? Because three years later the BBC's undercover reporting shows that nothing has changed. Nothing.
