Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 February 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

The culture of policing in this country is in urgent need of reform. The noble Baroness, Lady Casey, could not have been any clearer than in her report on the Metropolitan Police in 2023, but here we are debating this amendment in the wake of scandal after scandal in the last two years, not least the “Panorama” revelations into Charing Cross police station—the tip of the iceberg of conduct that the public rightly demands to be dealt with, root and branch.
