Met chief pledges to fire racists from force
THE Prime Minister has described the behaviour of Met Police officers who were secretly filmed making racist and sexist comments as "shocking" as he urged tough action from top brass.
The footage, gathered undercover for a BBC Panorama documentary, appears to show officers at a central London police station call for immigrants to be shot and brag about using violence against suspects.
Sir Keir Starmer said: "I've not yet seen the footage, but I've had it described to me, and it's shocking.
"I'm glad the Commissioner is responding. He needs to be very robust in his response."
Met Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley apologised for the officers' behaviour and pledged any wrongdoers will be sacked within weeks.
