Secret filming exposes hidden culture of misogyny and racism inside Met Police

[IwantToRetire]

Serving Metropolitan Police officers called for immigrants to be shot, revelled in the use of force and were dismissive of rape claims in footage captured by a Panorama undercover reporter.

The evidence of misogyny and racism challenges the Met's promise to have tackled what it calls "toxic behaviours" after the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving police officer.

Panorama's secret filming shows officers making sexualised comments to colleagues and sharing racist views about immigrants and Muslims.

This evidence reveals that, far from being driven out of the Met, racist and misogynistic attitudes have been driven underground. "Someone new joins, boom, mask on. You've got to figure them out," one officer said.

After the BBC sent a detailed list of allegations to the Met, it suspended eight officers and one staff member, and took two more officers off front-line duties. Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley said the behaviour outlined by Panorama was, "disgraceful, totally unacceptable and contrary to the values and standards" of the force.

I dont supposed anyone is surprised by this, but terrible that the Met has still not dealt with this.

The Met has a serious aversion to arresting Muslims accused of raping minors. PRO Palestine violent protestors are never bothered, week in week out.

Interesting because someone asked cop who commits the most crime and he says “Dude, easy. Muslims. They HATE us. They DISPISE us. “.

They never arrest the untouchables, flopping around with their huge feet, no matter what they do to women.
They are happy to arrest women for stickers, a ribbon, or being untoward towards pedophiles.

The orders have to be coming from somewhere, about who not to arrest. Hmmm I don’t want to go off on some weird tangent.

Exactly. Some of whats been said comes from experience, I am sure the younger policeman made conclusions based on the frequency of occurrence and not because he doesnt like those criminals personally.
And anyway, he was not at work, he was at a pub, and should have been asked for permission to be filmed.
One just cant say anything anymore to anyone. And can't discuss anything unless you say something that suits to the offended crowd.
Other things said WERE inappropriate.
I come from a culture where people laugh at how softly criminals are treated in western countries and make comic sketches and even comedy movies about that.

"Secret filming exposes hidden culture of misogyny and racism inside Met Police"

In what conceivable way is the Met's culture of misogyny and racism 'hidden'? It's practically an entry requirement.

I have just watched this and it's honestly shocked me.

Whilst I know there are bad apples, it is really awful to realise that the vulnerable are abused so openly without anyone speaking up

i watched this last night and thought for the most part alot it was very selective editing, situations and comments being quote completely out of context. Obviously the senior officers comments about women were completely derogatory but alot of it was just a bit of dark humour. Hardly institutional

The comments about assaulting someon in leg restraints in a police van were quite chilling, considering the people who have died in these circumstances. Kingsley Burrell for example.
