A great deal of what is wrong is set out in Baroness Casey's review. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/casey-review-misconduct-in-the-met-and-officer-dismissal/
Baroness Casey raised concern that the Met was considering each conduct issue separately, meaning it was failing to identify “repeated or patterns of unacceptable behaviour” and potentially missing “escalating misconduct”.
She highlighted an (unpublished) Met report which found 24 instances “where the same officer had been investigated on two or more occasions for behaviour linked to sexual misconduct and domestic abuse” but previous allegations had not been considered when deciding whether to bring a case for alleged misconduct.

It's not just the Met, sad to say.

Widespread police misconduct, corruption and dereliction of duty has been going for years. Officers being allowed to resign before facing charges, or taking early retirement on huge pensions - this has been the pattern of it for decades. And now we have the added layer of police capture by gender lobby groups.

It's a fucking cesspit.

Countless reports have been suppressed or not published at all.

Violence against women has been effectively decriminalised through lack of action and vanishingly-rare convictions.

Thieves can operate with impunity knowing nothing will be done and if they do get caught - which is highly unlikely - they'll get no more than a telling-off before being sent on their merry way.

The excuse of not enough officers, no capacity in the jails, is just more same-old same-old.

The whole system needs to be overhauled and we need a much bigger prison estate.

Perhaps if that awful "baroness" Michelle Mone was brought to brook we could build a couple of extra prisons with the money she and her husband stole.

Is it 'decriminalised' or actively facilitated?

Sicario · 07/09/2023 10:08

@ArabeIIaScott that's an awful way to think of it but you're right. These bastards should be strung up.

23 so a new recruit not a long standing officer where they can blame older systems, therfore we can clearly see that they aren't doing any psychological assessments of potential officers (or none that pick up sexual predators) as part of the new and improved vetting process.

He must have been a fairly new recruit.

But as he has been charged with a breach of a non molestation order, this order was either made against him before he joined, yet they still recruited, or after he joined and well, we know the mets record on turning a blind eye to officers behaviour

To me that smacks of strategy.
