The Great Multicultural Experiment

In 2010, Angela Merkel declared multiculturalism had "failed, absolutely failed." Just years earlier, she and other European leaders had celebrated it. What changed?

"Tackling discrimination is a legal and operational imperative for the Met ... to acknowledge the extent to which racism, misogyny and homophobia are present in its organisational processes and systems" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk

"Londoners see and rely on frontline officers the most day to day, but these officers feel demoralised and let down by their leaders." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The misconduct process is not fit for purpose. A new, independent, multi-disciplinary team of officers and staff should be brought in by the Met to reform how it deals with misconduct cases" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"short term projects and campaigns have been launched from HQ without seeing them through, considering their impact or engaging the organisation in embedding enduring systemic change." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk

"Key measures to test [Met] reforms: Increases in the proportion of misconduct cases where action is taken" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"If sufficient progress is not being made ... more radical, structural options, such as dividing up the Met into national, specialist and London responsibilities, should be considered" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Female officers and staff routinely face sexism and misogyny. The Met has not protected its female employees or members of the public from police perpetrators of domestic abuse" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Worryingly, some of the worst cultures, behaviours and practices have been found in specialist firearms units, where standards and accountability should be at their absolute highest." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Sergeants and Inspectors are expected to manage very large numbers of constables and junior staff as a core feature of their work, without the time and the tools to do so." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"We have found widespread #bullying, particularly of those with protected characteristics. 22% of staff and officers experienced bullying ... 33% of those with a long-standing illness, disability" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"A series of scandals ... and the Met’s response – playing them down, denial, obfuscation, and digging in to defend officers ... are strong indicators of fundamental problems." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Following any issue, there is a strong tendency to look for a positive spin ... They seek to put it in the past and blame individual ‘bad apples’, rather than pausing for genuine reflection" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The Met and the Mayor of London should commission independent progress reviews after two years, and again after five years, so that Londoners can have trust and confidence that reform is taking place." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Met officers are 82% White and 71% male, and the majority do not live in the city they police. As such, the Met does not look like the majority of Londoners." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk

"Key measures to test [Met] reforms: Improvements in the charge rates for reported crimes and, in particular, improvements in charge rates for crimes involving violence against women and girls" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk

"Key measures to test [Met] reforms: Reductions in racial disparity in misconduct cases" #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The Met has yet to free itself of institutional racism. Public consent is broken. The Met has become unanchored from the Peelian principle of policing by consent set out when it was established." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"There has been no central record of training, so officers may well be in roles which they are not trained for." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The Met does not easily accept criticism nor ‘own’ its failures. It does not embrace or learn from its mistakes. Instead, it starts from a position that nothing wrong has occurred." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"In the absence of vigilance towards those who intend to abuse the office of constable, predatory and unacceptable behaviour has been allowed to flourish." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The policy prioritisation of violence against women and girls has not been made an operational reality, and women and children do not get the protection and support they deserve." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The frontline has been deprioritised. A reorganisation moved 32 borough-based police commands to 12 units ... There are now much weaker connections to long established communities." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"those who speak up in the Met learn the hard way that there are adverse consequences for themselves, for their careers, and for their teams. Systems support wrongdoers. Complainants are not believed." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"The management of people is poor. The Met’s processes do not effectively root out bad officers, help to tackle mediocre officers, or truly support and develop good officers." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"Policing attracts those who wish to abuse powers ... The Met has not taken this fact seriously. Its vetting processes are not vigilant in identifying clear warning signs"

"Those investigating domestic abuse are also under considerable pressures, with unmanageable caseloads and poor support for victims." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk
https://bit.ly/casey-review-2023

"the College of Policing’s Code of Ethics and the Peelian principles ... have not been front and centre of the Met’s strategic or operational approach either internally or externally." #CaseyReview #accountability @metpoliceuk

We saw Accidental Death of an Anarchist last night at the Lyric Hammersmith. Non stop, brilliant energy, and a powerful message brilliantly adapted for today's policing crises. I can't recommend it enough, but today is their last performance!
