Home Secretary Suella Braverman says the public trust in policing has been "shattered"

The letter was Ms Braverman's first public interaction with chief constables and police and crime commissioners in England and Wales since being appointed home secretary.
Ms Braverman said she expected police forces to cut homicide, serious violence and neighbourhood crime by 20%.
