London's Metropolitan Police is institutionally racist, misogynistic and homophobic and unable to police itself, an independent review said, mounting pressure on the Met's new chief to reform Britain's biggest police force
The review was commissioned by the then-head of the Met, Cressida Dick, in 2021 after a serving officer wasto life in prison for the rape and murder of Sarah Everard in a case that shocked the country and - along with subsequent instances of crimes against women - turned a focus onto the force's broader work culture.
It comes over two decades after a 1999 inquiry into the murder of Black teenager Stephen Lawrence identified institutional racism within the force over its response to the killing. Met Commissioner Mark Rowley, Britain's most senior police officer, told reporters: "We've let Londoners down and we've let our own frontline down and this report paints that vividly ... I'm deeply sorry."
