No.
Officers are acting in accordance with the training you’ve given them, Commissioner.
They’ve been told “GC people have warped twisted views and are motivated by hate". This was at New Scotland Yard, was applauded by your officers, and defended in court.

In Newman v Metropolitan police, we heard about a Trans Day of Visibility in 2023, held on Met premises, attended by their staff and officers.
Speakers included activists Saba Ali and Eva Echo. They defended the contribution of these activists in the tribunal.

They even defended this statement 👇
It’s on a whole new level to @Glinner’s comment, yet the Met didn’t seem to find anything wrong with it at all. No armed officers turned up to carry out an arrest.

We even learnt during the tribunal, that there had been a counter terrorism assessment of GC women’s groups.
Pressed for by their Trans and Non Binary network and duly reported to them.

Newman v Met is the tip of the Metropolitan Police iceberg.
There is a rot in policing, whose leaders are unwilling to accept responsibility or commit to wholescale change.
They are infiltrated by activists, act for activists, and are afraid to say no to activists.

The Met police found the time to write a letter, apologising for not discovering who ‘leaked’ the TDOV comments.
The fact they are now facing a storm of exposure for unwisely jumping to the demands of activists is their fault alone. They took a side and lost impartiality.

The Commissioner’s statement 👇claims officers had no alternative to arresting Graham Linehan. That’s just not true though.
Women have faced horrendous threats, abuse and harassment from activists and are mainly brushed off with no action taken.
A side was taken.

It should be a surprise to no one, least of all Sir Mark Rowley, that his officers leap to the demands of extremists. After all, they are welcoming, paying and applauding extremists themselves.

DC Melanie Newman also courageously challenged the Met at a Tribunal. Because without brave people, nothing changes.
