Metropolitan Police officers will no longer be able to access TikTok and other social media sites as the force bans its use on work phones.
The UK's biggest police force, which employs around 30,000 officers, has become the latest major organisation to block access to the platform along with other social media apps with the exception of WhatsApp.
The move comes as part of a major smartphone upgrade being rolled out across the force and follows the announcement earlier this month that Parliament staff would also no longer be able to use the platform on professional devices.
