Nonsense the Police are an independent body, the Government of the day has no say in how they work or deal with anything That simply isn't true: Plenty of policing policies are laid down by the home office. The Home Secretary appoints the commissioner. Crimes are recorded according to Home Office Counting Rules. etc. etc. I agree to some extent the Home Sec job is to monitor Police Performance yes the Commissioner of the Met is an appointment is a selection from a number of applicants overseen by the Home Sec and people such a Khan the Mayor of London who then appoint who they consider to be best candidate and responsible for day to day Policing The Government’s priorities for policing are clear: to cut crime, improve trust and confidence in policing and deliver justice and high-quality outcomes for victims. The Home Secretary is responsible for setting the national, strategic direction of policing and holding policing to account for these commitments. Chief Constables are operationally independent, held to account by a democratically elected PCC (and Mayors with PCC functions). Whilst it is for Chief Constables to make decisions about frontline policing and how resources are best deployed at a local level, the public rightly expect that the police will pursue available opportunities to prevent and detect crime and we are determined to work with the policing sector to deliver this.

Look at the case of Axel Rudakubana. He murdered three little girls and attempted to murder ten others. When the police searched his address they found the deadly toxin ricin and an Al Qaida terrorist pamphlet. Yet unbelievably the police insisted it was not terror related.
Everyone knows perfectly well that if Axel Rudakubana's name was John Smith he would have been charged with terrorism and banged up for life.

Talking of Axel Rudakubana, I see he's in court today. He's charged with murder, attempted murder, being in possession of a deadly toxin and an Al-Qaeda training manual.
But it wasn't terrorism.
