'It's every day, it's everywhere - it's just so toxic.' This despondent Met Police officer tells mrjamesob that female officers are targeted as 'sexual property' by married male officers.
how, during her time as an officer, female members of staff were “targeted as sexual property,” often by married men whose wives “had no idea what their husbands were like at work.”
She then described how these attitudes made the Met a demoralising place to work, saying it “beats you down.” She realised “the media hate us, people on the street hate us,” and this made her feel like it would be futile to try and fight the “horrible” workplace culture. Michelle painted a grim picture of life as a Met Police officer, with attitudes of misogyny and homophobia rife within the organisation and a “constant barrage” from the media and the public.When asked about Baroness Casey’s damning report released earlier today that found issues of misogyny and homophobia in the Met, Michelle was quick to point out “there are pockets of people that don’t accept that we are what you’re saying we are.
“Have I become complicit? Yes, because I’ve heard it, but I’ve not done anything about it,” she admitted. James clarified that Michelle had been a victim of the Met’s institutional problems, which affect its staff because “you have no choice but to join in or be complicit".
