Dick, House, Ephgrave, and Blair (top serving or former MPS officers) have had the brass neck to issue a naked denial to the conclusions of a report listing countless, evidenced examples of corrupt behaviour designed to protect the organisation.
In other words, they are repeating PRECISELY the same sin of which the #DanielMorgan Panel accuses their organisation in its report.
And what are we to make of this?
Are they serious people?
Or are they simply propagandists?

The panel accuses the MPS not of taking brown envelopes, (although this occurs) but of a specific type of behavioural and institutionalised corruption.
It is THIS that their crafty generalised statements seek to cover up.

On and on and on it goes!
Furthermore, this is the most insidious corruption, disguised and hidden by layer upon layer of other deceptions.

It can, and ultimately will completely destroy an organisation from the inside. Cancer is a good metaphore.

I hope any of you who saw my appearance before the London government's "Policing a Crime Select Committee" today will understand is that firstly: /1
I was trying to distil what has essentially been 34 years of mental torture inflicted on myself and those I love by a police service that by rights we should respect and hold dear as a vital pillar of our civilisation. 2/
I've metaphorically climbed Everest to secure this report and its conclusions.

The first reaction of the Met's "golden circle" is blanket denial of these conclusions. 3/

Senior anti-corruption officer DAC Roy Clark first lied to me about the quality of the first investigations; said I was "verging on paranoid" in an internal communication and then went off to become Director of Investigations at the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
Such is the rot that has been allowed to fester for years in this organisation, and which I have been forced to watch for 34 years.
Is it any wonder that we now have a FIFTH iteration of a police complaints organisation (the IOPC) that is not fit for purpose?

In 2011, when the last Daniel Morgan prosecution failed, Acting Commissioner Tim Godwin told the Metropolitan Police Authority that the first investigation into my brother's murder had been "tainted by corruption" /1
And that over many years the Met had failed to face up to that corruption. This was a courageous statement, in my view, but we felt the corruption had extended much further than the first inquiry. And that ignoring corruption is *per se* corruption. /2
Tim Godwin belonged to an organisation who will do almost anything, in my view, to "protect" its reputation. Including victimising whistle-blowers, lying, smearing, delaying, obstructing scrutiny etc. etc. He was brave.

The past three years since Brexit, while holding a panel of inquiry to account for its work, have been emotionally arduous in the extreme. My mother died as too in this period. 1/
The strongest emotions throughout this period have been anger and fear. Anger at the blatant lies being told in the public arena and, simultaneously at the damage that police lies done to my family's lives.

Lies, and the agendas of the powerful were everywhere I looked. 2/
Hence the fear. The parallels with the rise of Nazism and fascism in the 1930's were all too strong (and are still so) for me to feel any sense of ease or trust in what is going on around me.

I've already seen the British state act in very ugly, secretive and damaging ways. 3/

In the US House, they're currently showing video and pics of our now PM and a Russian spy (a Mr Mifsud) at another gathering before a House committee.

Both men appear to be quite pleased with themselves - and each other.
Boris also likes an expensive game of tennis with the husband of one of Putin's former ministers.

The man pays extremely well, I hear. But then de Pfeffel is terrific value for money.
And he does have the requisite "ursine" qualities. You should see how he shoulder-charged that five-year old kid playing rugby.

Cressida Dick is a person of interest to me, to use police- speak. She and I have what I would describe as unfortunate relationship. I won't bore anyone with a detailed history, but my conclusions are:

1) that she has shown sub-zero willingness to cooperate with the DMIP,
2) She is not a progressive Commissioner of Police in my experience. All of her actions say that she is doing her utmost to prevent and/or delay public insight into what I would describe as some very, very perverted and disturbing policing and its multiple nasty spin-offs.
3) In other words, she is acting like "a copper's copper" as Lord "Swifty" Stevens (a deeply unpleasant chap, in my view) liked to style himself.

When it comes to the public looking in some of the Yard's more nasty, dirty closets where their "relationship"...
