Met Police chief Sir Mark Rowley says hundreds of officers should be sacked for misconduct and criminal behaviour

The report's author, Baroness Louise Casey, said the Met's misconduct system was too slow, with cases taking an average 400 days to resolve. She also described it as racist and misogynist.

She said a rule that allowed probationers to be sacked more easily was not being used fairly, with black officers 126% more likely than white recruits to be subject to what is known as Regulation 13. Asian officers were 123% more likely that white to be fired.Wayne Couzens, who was a serving Met officer, is serving a life sentence for the murder of Sarah Everard
