And those who speak up or challenge the status quo get targeted with false allegations and hounded out of policing!
Five years ago today, Rocking The Boat was published. It was widely acknowledged for its candid and uncomfortable portrayal of police culture. Five years on, the need for honesty, accountability and reform feels as urgent as ever. @metpoliceuk @MetBPA

“I'm Jewish.. All Jewish people are not k!llers. This is just a section of the Israeli people that are like that.. What happened in Gaza was utterly wrong, wicked and terrifying. The Hamas attack was terrible.. but it came from 70 years of oppression..”

Honoured to speak at the @MetBPA AGM in London, Waterloo today. As politics drifts right, our institutions follow — testing the resilience of Black officers already facing deep inequalities at work. @metpoliceuk #rockingtheboat

It appears Fox News may have manipulated audio from the 250 Army parade. In the first clip from Fox News viewers heard a crowd sing "Happy Birthday" to the president. It's not audible in the same footage from Fox Nation, Fox Live Now, AP, USA Today, Reuters, PBS, ABC, CBS or NBC

Policing outside Selhurst Park this evening. Maybe it's a sign that I'm out of touch with acceptable standards of police officer appearance but a difficult one to accept nevertheless #hairlength #CPFC – at Croydon, London
