Met Police's approach to tackling police corruption not fit for purpose, watchdog finds

The Metropolitan Police approach to tackling police corruption is not fit for purpose, a watchdog has found.

The force was criticised for failing to learn all the lessons from its failed investigation into the 1987 murder of private investigator Daniel Morgan in a pub car park, which has been mired in claims of corruption.

The report by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) published on Tuesday also found "dire" procedures for seized items with hundreds of exhibits including cash and drugs going unaccounted for.

Drugs and cash missing!!?? Sack them .. that’s shocking!

[ugwxerw]

All UK police really.

Rotherham still not resolved.

[demonprinces]

Corruption what corruption, investigated ourselves and found nothing

[reginaldblaylock]

Why have a police department just put the Mafia in charge.

[bhayt]

What a joke currupt people doing a investigation on curruption should work out well

[robertbyrne]

The police should be run by real police officers who honestly work there way up. Not by people who fit the modern profile of PC and do not have any real knowledge of what they are about. Just look at the last one fast track all the way up and was just playing politics. She didn't know left from right or right and wrong

[flyinghedgehog]

Took them 35 years to investigate the Met? Lol

[thewanderer]

not fit for purpose like boris /starmer/ and most of the corrupt mps.

[fasthracing]

Stood down on a FULL pension of course. There is never any culpability for these people.

My community lost respect for these hypocritical heathens along time ago.

[SajidKhan-dkqt]

Met Police is highly inefficient, to say the least!
I was assaulted & reported it to the police.They said they can come in 45 minutes but after 40 minutes, I got another call that they are busy & can not come!
PATHETIC!

[johnanthonylucock]

35 years to come up with this. No wonder there's no confidence in the police

[iguiste]

They need the same thing Man Utd needs. A complete redo of the entire team and force.

[heyzus]
