London’s Met chief speaks after secret filming exposes officers’ misogyny and racism | BBC News


London’s Metropolitan Police chief Sir Mark Rowley has spoken to the BBC, after a Panorama investigation found misogyny and racism inside his force.

He says the behaviour uncovered in Charing Cross station is "reprehensible" and says he wants people "off the payroll".

He insists the force is better than three years ago, but accepts there is still "cancer" to be removed.

The behaviour uncovered by Panorama is "shocking" and that Rowley needs to be "very robust" in his response, UK PM Keir Starmer said.

The secret filming showed officers making sexualised comments to colleagues and sharing racist views about immigrants and Muslims.
