Met statement: Appearance of stitch-up is profoundly damaging

Responding to the Met Police statement this morning on the Sue Gray report, Liberal Democrat Home Affairs Spokesperson Alistair Carmichael MP said:

"So first the police were waiting for Sue Gray, now Sue Gray has to wait for the police?"Any appearance of an establishment stitch-up between the Met Commissioner and the Government is profoundly damaging. Police officers need the trust and confidence of the public to do their jobs and keep our communities safe."That's why we called for the police to investigate Number 10 weeks ago and put this whole sorry business behind us, instead of waiting for Sue Gray."The Sue Gray report must be published in full, including all photos, text messages and other evidence. If it is redacted now, a full, unredacted version must be published as soon as the police investigation is complete."

It does seem like a stitch up.The longer this farce goes on it will become 'old news' and be forgotten.It does look complicit between Johnson and The Met be it Dick or Baz Savid (man in charge of Covid inquiries ,brother of Savid) involved.
