Khan ‘appalled’ by Met officers’ behaviour as Mahmood calls footage ‘sickening’

London Mayor Sadiq Khan has expressed his outrage over the "appalling" behavior of Metropolitan Police officers, as revealed in a BBC Panorama undercover investigation at Charing Cross police station. The report uncovered disturbing incidents of racism, misogyny, and sexual harassment among the officers. Yvette Cooper, the chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee, also condemned the "sickening" footage, describing it as a "complete betrayal of public trust." The investigation prompted a formal inquiry by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) and a pledge from the Met Police to address the issues raised. The revelations have sparked widespread concern and calls for accountability within the police force. The mayor's comments underline the gravity of the situation and the urgent need for the Met to take immediate and decisive action to address the deeply troubling issues exposed by the investigation.
