Sir Tom, a lawyer and former rail regulator, who spent a decade as the chief inspector of constabulary, suggested the Mayor had been more interested in his own political fortunes than the leadership of the Met.
Why does this even need to be suggested? He’s a politician, worried about the politics of his career above all. The Met, or even reality, only get a look in in relation to that.
That’s not specifically about Khan, that’s just the way politics works.
Sadiq Khan urged Dame Cressida Dick to break the law by sacking all the police officers involved in the Charing Cross racism scandal in order to protect his own political fortunes
“Look here, Cressy, if you’re man enough to blow away an innocent bloke on the tube, surely you can sack a few coppers for forwarding an off-colour WhatsApp…”
Look up the definition of “Reward for failure” and examples will include both the homicidal lesbian and the son of a hard working bus driver.
London deserves him.
Hmm; I knew Tom Winsor; we both worked in the same law firm in the ‘90s.
Winsor v Khan v Dick – this is one of those “can they all lose please” situations.
