Have the people involved even been suspended (police and school staff)? Having now read the horrific details of this incident I can see absolutely no mitigating circumstances for the action taken; someone has to face some form of criminal charges otherwise we are saying that we live in a country where implicit state sanctioned sexual assault of it citizens is acceptable. It beggars belief.

do you know i still haven't read the whole thing - I have seen the JOB comment and anger and some of the news stories around it but I can't get through the whole report -its so gut churningly vile.

If somebody is in the Commons, in a City Bank or in solicitors office and thought they could smell weed on some one there would the Police attend if called and would they subject an adult to an impromptu strip search?

Tbh I wish I hadn't read it, cannot get my head around what that poor child was subjected to. As you say, when you put it into any other context it sounds insane. That it took place in school with a child is too repulsive for words.

That is a start and hopefully there is sufficient outrage that the family will have access to all the resources they need. At least the family and the young girl herself are aware of the widespread support they have.

I assume the IPCC will soon be involved if they are not already. What happened was unlawful so there could/should be criminal consequences there too.
 
They have been a fucking shambles. Dick kept assuring people that she was making changes for the better - nothing from recent years suggests any progress indeed they are regressing in recruitment. training and monitoring. The ACC who said she should be reinstated should be out of the running to replace her and t5he former Met Senior Officers and politicians and commentators who blamed Sadiq Khan for political grandstanding need to take a long hard look in the mirror and ask themselves was this a well led Police Force?

It was put in the hands of an inept over promoted Chief Constable and an already questionable force has gone downhil from there
 
They are starting to make West Mids look like saints in comparison.

As long as they are useful tools to the state the Dalek home secretary will say the right words and happily be complicate in their corrupt actions.

Dick is still being payed, whilst arguing the terms of her pay off! What an utter farce. Incompetence in the extreme.

The ACC who is acting up in her absence has said she was unfairly dismissed and should be reinstated - just think of the shit that has come out since she was told there was no confidence in her.............if thats his opinion and he thinks she was doing a bang up job then he should be assumed that he has put himself out of the running to succeed her

A bit strong but all that has been exposed that happened on her watch from rapes assaults murders by serving officers exposes the lie that she was somehow making progress in reforming and fixing the Met - she was mired in its culture and couldn't see what was going on
 
And the Met wait until midnight ( coz they hope no-one is watching ) they propose to waste even more public money - the organisers called it off - who are they trying to "punish"? Remember this when the Police moan of a lack of cash and a lack of resources
