Scotland Yard chief Dame Cressida Dick on Friday warned that a “politicisation of policing” was damaging the entire justice system in a thinly-veiled swipe at Mayor Sadiq Khan before leaving office.
The Met Commissioner — forced to resign after clashing with Mr Khan — admitted that recent scandals, including the murder of Sarah Everard by serving officer Wayne Couzens, caused her to look back “with humility” when Londoners were “let down”.
