Anyways, the Met is rotten to its core. Burn it all down and start fresh.
The undercover reporter says the people on the job didn’t trust him and he was still able to gather all this evidence.
How much worse would he have seen if they actually trusted him?
Three years ago, the Met Police was put into special measures because it was ‘failing to meet basic policing standards’.
That ended this January because the Inspectorate says it has improved.
Don’t worry though. Between the filming of this and when it aired, Sgt Joe McIlvenny was back at work.
Hooray.
Interestingly, it sounds like Sgt Joe McIlvenny was removed from frontline duties before they finished filming this because members of British Transport Police made a complaint after JM told a female member of the public
she should consider taking up sex work (because she was Asian).
Inspector Jim Morris is JM’s boss. He feels bad for poor JM. He thinks it’s not fair.
