Two-Tiered Policing in London: Report Slams Met
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
A new report by Policy Exchange reveals a two-tiered policing system within Londons Metropolitan Police, prioritizing demonstrators rights over public safety. The think tank recommends placing the force back into special measures due to criticisms of protest handling and rising crime rates. Public confidence in the Met has plummeted, with low crime solution rates and a perceived culture of impunity. The report also suggests removing Sir Sadiq Khans oversight and giving the Home Secretary control to improve performance. Metropolitan Police Commander Hayley Sewart counters with a New Met for London plan, citing crime reductions in theft, robbery, vehicle crime, and knife-enabled crime.
