Secret filming exposes misogyny and racism inside London’s Met Police | BBC News

Serving officers in London’s Metropolitan Police service called for immigrants to be shot, revelled in the use of force and were dismissive of rape claims in footage captured by a BBC Panorama undercover reporter.

The evidence of misogyny and racism challenges the Met’s promise to have tackled what it calls “toxic behaviours” after the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving police officer.

Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley said the behaviour outlined by Panorama was, “disgraceful, totally unacceptable and contrary to the values and standards” of the force.
