BREAK: Met Police accused of ‘institutional corruption’ in a devastating report by the Daniel Morgan Independent Panel
‘The Met Police placed its concern for its own reputation above the public interest when it concealed from the family of Daniel Morgan & from the wider public the failings in the 1st murder investigation & the role of corrupt officers....’ #DanielMorgan
‘The lack of candour displayed by the Met Police in relation to the investigation of the murder of Daniel Morgan over so many years constitutes a barrier to the proper accountability of the Met Police’
‘In calling the Met Police & other relevant agencies of the Criminal Justice System to account, the Panel has experienced significant impediments’
‘We believe that concealing or denying failings, for the sake of an organisation’s public image is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit, and constitutes a form of institutional corruption’ #DanielMorgan
We’ll have more on Channel 4 News at 7pm #DanielMorgan

NEW: Extraordinary statement from Daniel Morgan Independent Panel [set up 8 yrs ago to investigate, inter alia, police conduct re one of Britain’s most notorious unsolved murders] - accuses Home Office of ‘unnecessary’ intervention effectively in breach of Panel’s independence
“An outrage”

Statement from Daniel Morgan’s family who’ve described the move by the Home Secretary Priti Patel as ‘unwarranted interference’ and a ‘kick in the teeth’ for the family ⬇️ @AlastairMorgan
Awaiting official Home Office statement, but a source tonight insisted this wasn’t about the Panel’s independence & said the Home Sec had a duty to ensure the report complied with obligations under the Human Rights Act and took into account national security considerations.

NEW: The UK Government & Public Health England deny ‘intercepting’ Covid-19 tests last March, supposedly destined for Wales, to prioritise England

It follows accusations made in private emails now released to @Channel4News

UPDATE on previous 'mystery of collapsed deal’ thread
I began looking into this in March 2020. After several FOI requests [all initially refused], an appeal [refused] & a complaint to the @ICOnews [resolved],13 months on, some details have finally been disclosed to me. Bear with me pls: it’s complex, but hopefully provides more info
It centres around a story [initially broken by @BBCWalesNews last March] that a major Covid-19 test deal for Wales had apparently collapsed.
In the following days on #c4news we revealed the company involved to be the pharmaceutical giant @roche⬇️

Thread.

Over the last 10 days I’ve been hearing accounts from NHS staff [in south Wales] who’ve been repeatedly abused online and accused of peddling fake news about the pandemic.
Here’s a flavour of what they’ve had to face

[🎥@daibaker Producer @c4marcus]
“F*** off you shill”

For some doctors like @dr_mattmorgan, whose media appearances have offered important glimpses inside the world of intensive care @UHWCriticalCare throughout the pandemic, this is what some of that abuse looks like
ICU doc @JonesTheBosher is another who says her media appearances [at times helping @WelshGovernment with public health messaging] have seen her repeatedly accused of lying re Covid, at one point she says she was told ‘someone’s going to round me up & put me in prison or hurt me’

‘There was a terrible feeling of dread’

Dr David Hepburn @apnoeaboy a month on from our last interview

The ICU consultant’s latest compelling account of treating Covid-19 patients.

Rarely have I interviewed a better communicator in any field of work

In my latest interview with David Hepburn, from @AneurinBevanUHB Royal Gwent Hospital:

• How patients are ventilated
• Physical toll of ICU
• ‘Intensive care delirium’
• Relative youth of patients
• ‘Constant fear that one day it might be one of us’

This extended version of the interview was filmed by @daibaker & produced/edited by @c4marcus

THREAD

The mystery of the ‘collapsed deal’ between the @WelshGovernment and a Covid-19 testing company.

I’ve been trying to find out a little more...
On Sat @BBCWalesNews reported that a deal had collapsed which would have seen the Welsh Government provided with an extra 5000 #COVIDー19 tests per day by an unnamed company...
Early on I was told it involved the Swiss pharmaceutical & diagnositcs company Roche…[a claim backed up by other well-placed sources]
