I think with extra power should come extra responsibility. They need to be whiter than white.
The same should go for politicians too but the more powerful you are the more you can get away with.
I think with extra power should come extra responsibility. They need to be whiter than white.It’s not thought. It’s why you have checks on recruits and processes to ensure it’s the exception when things go wrong. Part of the problem is people assuming cause someone has authority they must be correct.
Oh I completely agree but people assume they are and they’re not they are members of the community they swerve and are fallible human beings so need to be held in check like vicarsI think with extra power should come extra responsibility. They need to be whiter than white.

Not only is there good and bad in everyone there is good and bad in every profession. This shouldn’t come as a surprise
It’s likely to be and if it’s not it will be because of the myth of authority protecting themDon’t disagree Pete it’s a just not a good look at all, particularly in the current climate.
40,000 odd met police I believe, be interested to see the % of staff charged/convicted of sex offences against another industry of similar numbers.
Not sure it's a myth tbf .It’s likely to be and if it’s not it will be because of the myth of authority protecting them
Wrong word. The thought that police officers or teachers or vicars can’t do wrong. Course they canNot sure it's a myth tbf .
Ah!Wrong word. The thought that police officers or teachers or vicars can’t do wrong. Course they can

I think that’s really absurd. I’ve known several and many are pretty decent people - I knew one who worked in tbe Met for years - he admitted a problem with being desensitised to things but the people they deal with day in day out makes it a pretty miserable job most of the time
Those that I’ve met have also been part of the MET and within a few hours had revealed their true colours. Im not saying that they’re all bad but a high proportion are undesirable, to say the least. It’s not really absurd as it’s my own personal experience of them, same as yours.I think that’s really absurd.

There is clearly an institutional issue afoot here though, notwithstanding the difficulty of the job

I think I've said it before on this thread but the book the untouchables about the MET is incredible.
I would say itsgor far worse since then.
Can you give us the nutshell?
He's 61 and was only convicted last year, seems a bit pointless dropping the sentence from whole life to 35 years.What the fuck?
It is almost like The Met need shutting down and restartingThe Met seems to be an absolute mess, not really sure what the answer is but they seem to lurch from one crisis to the next.
