In what other industry - public service, private sector, civil or otherwise - would somebody who is heavily implicated in an ongoing IPCC investigation into the fatal shooting of an innocent man - Jean Charles De Menezes - BE PROMOTED?!?!?!
Commander Cressida Dick is now a Deputy Assistant Commissioner.
Yes I know the Independent Police Complaints Commission are 'toothless' and that Commander Dick would have been taken care of anyway but the fact that the outcome of their investigation is not yet known (or is it and we just haven't been told?) has to ring alarm bells.
The chair of the MPA (Metropolitan Police Authority) who oversaw the promotion - Len Duvall - is quoted as saying "The MPA is keenly aware that the people of London must have confidence in the police who work, in what are often difficult circumstances, to protect them,".....er, right. I am just thankful that I don't live in London with trigger happy coppers (he was shot 7 times after all) running around being given instructions by the likes of Cmdr Dick.
And how does promoting incompetence generate confidence?
