Awkward or what? Met Chief asked by MP to apply the laws of the land to his chums and peers

Intro by Steve Cook

I’m featuring this article from UK Reloaded’s sister site, Europe Reloaded for obvious reasons.

The Met Police Chief is probably in an invidious position of having to apply the country’s laws to his chums and peers. Awkward. I don’t envy him. Nevertheless he and his officers have a duty to apply the law without fear or favour to all, which includes the nobs and toffs as well as us plebs.

As soon as you render some section of society immune to the county’s laws you set up a haven for criminals and invite lawlessness. When those exempt  from the law and justice are the elite governing the country you have a recipe for decay and catastrophe – which we are now witnessing.

Apart from anything else, if our “elite” don’t set a good example of being law-abiding citizens they will have a hard time convincing the plebs they should be. The decay of law and order probably starts at the top and permeates down.

What is happening to our country is the mismanaged mess you get when you let criminals run the show impervious to comeuppance or consequences. Criminals do not govern well, they merely make the rest us miserable so it would be a good idea if we could knock off entrusting the governance of the nation to crooks.

We could make a start by bringing some of these crooks to justice instead of letting them get away with their shenanigans. Which is where the police come  in, we hope.

Our manifestly criminal-parasite “elite” must be brought under the law and the  rules of good conduct that govern the rest of us.

So it falls the the senior officers of the police to ensure this happens.

We are sure they will want to do right by their country and its people and launch investigations that will exonerate the blameless and bring wrongdoers to justice  -WHOEVER THEY MAY BE.

But it’s easy for me to say and I can understand why the Met Chief – if such  is happening – may be squirming a little.

However, simply ignoring Andrew Bridgen’s communication looks bad and there is a danger that millions will see it as a sign that criminality is thriving in the  corridors of power.

The  Principles of Public Life referred to the article are worth repeating here:

selflessness,

objectivity,

integrity,

accountability,

openness,

honesty,

 leadership

and I would add  this:

be worthy of trust.

Over to you, Sir Mark.

We recommend answering MP Andrew Bridgen’s communication.

Communication, as they say, is the universal solvent.

Met Police Chief Fails to Respond to Official Request for Meeting from Andrew Bridgen MP

ER Editor: We feel this tweet is worth its own place. From UK MP Andrew Bridgen today.

The Seven Principles of Public Life Bridgen links to below, applicable to those in any form of public service, are: selflessness, objectivity, integrity, accountability, openness, honesty, and leadership. 

Bridgen sent Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley a letter on February 20, 2024, a critical communication requesting a meeting that has been ignored to date. Bridgen’s second letter to Rowley, contained in the tweet below, dated May 2, gives the context.

We ran this report, an interview Bridgen gave to journalist Jim Ferguson, a few days after February 20. See —

Evidence To Be Presented That Criminal Activity Has Been Committed by the Very Top of Govt in the UK

********

The Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police has failed to acknowledge an important letter from a Member of Parliament – for over two months – despite an email reminder on March 2. This conduct is not in the public interest and is not consistent with the seven Nolan Principles of Public Life. gov.uk/government/pub
