BBC Radio 4 reported in their PM programme on 19 October 2018 that in 2008, the Home Office sent a circular to all police forces in the country stating: "as far as these young girls who are being exploited in towns and cities, we believe they have made an informed choice about their sexual behaviour and therefore it is not for police officers to get involved in." a) Did the Metropolitan Police receive this letter? b) Were any investigations closed down in response to this letter? c) Did the Metropolitan Police ever receive a letter from the Home Office at...

According to Chief Constable Sarah Thornton, Head of the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC), investigating hate crime risks distracting police from their core role of handling emergencies, solving violent crime, burglaries and neighbourhood policing*.

Mr Mayor, just on the point of rough sleeping and homelessness, we have just had Remembrance [Day] and, as you might know, this particularly affects our veterans. About 9,000 nationwide are homeless and then a proportion of those are sleeping rough. Given that we have just had Remembrance, would you possibly put out a message from yourself about how we should look after our veterans in London. It is appalling the way that they are treated, by successive Governments, I might add. Would you do that?

In February we learned that London had witnessed a 20% increase in rapes between January 2017 and January 2018. The Evening Standard reported the following on 23 rd February 2018: Asked at a London Assembly hearing if he had any idea what was behind the rise, Sir Craig said: “No, is the honest answer. It’s not as simple as saying this is increased confidence. Of course, that plays a part but there is something going on with sexual offending in London that we don’t fully understand, the causes of it. We see the end of it, [but] we don’t understand...

David Kurten AM: I just want to follow from Assembly Member Arnold’s question about the link between children who are excluded from school, or people in general, and then the propensity to get involved in crime. I know, Commissioner, you said that correlation is not necessarily causation, but I wondered if the both of you have considered something that you did not mention that may be staring us in the face, which is that family breakdown and fatherlessness possibly is a cause for both of those things. In London among young people there is an epidemic of fatherlessness, and this...
