A High Profile Judgment!?

Worryingly yesterday, I became aware that the Commissioner has no intention of bringing to an end the dispute between him and I even after the recent Employment Appeal Court judgment with regards to my complaints of discrimination, harassment, victimisation and leaking about me at Scotland Yard. It appears he is finding the judgment hard to accept. This is...

In 2001, I wrote an article for Operation Black Vote (The Home of Black Politics) about Immigration: good for multicultural Britain. This was following a speech by the Prime Minister David Cameron, claiming that the country has seriously been damaged by an influx of migrants, many who are from ethnic minority communities. This speech, together...

Hacked Off Royal Charter

In an attempt to wreck the Royal Charter on the press agreed by all parties in Parliament in March (based on the Leveson Inquiry recommendations and backed by the victims of press abuse) the press barons have put forward a rival draft charter. Naturally their version, known as the PressBoF Charter, would severely limit...

Metropolitan Police Leadership

By

Policing & Crime

  It has always been my view that leadership within Britain’s biggest police force is top down NOT bottom up, especially, when it comes to diversity. This is why, I hold the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe and the Mayor of London Boris Johnson personally responsible for my discriminatory treatment and that of...

Why Challenging Wrongdoing Is Important

By

Crossing the Police Line

The past week or so, I’ve been thinking about why I did what I did and continue to do in challenging discrimination within the Metropolitan Police. More so, because I still await the judgment of the Employment Appeal Court. People too only recently have asked me what I want/hope to achieve and includes former...

Lee Jasper has a point… about Stonewall!

Love him or hate him, he speaks a lot of sense. Earlier today, I read an article about Stonewall (a charity which apparently works for equality and justice within the lesbian, gay and bisexual community) Equality Dinner 2013 at The Dorchester Hotel, Park Lane, Mayfair, London. Accompanying was a photograph of the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir...

Tesco... You Shop, We Drop!

You can’t make these things up. This morning, I received an email from SumOfUs.org - a world-wide movement of people, working together to hold corporations accountable for their actions and forge a new, sustainable path for our global economy. Apparently, Tesco is forcing its warehouse workers and drivers to wear electronic armbands that can monitor how hard they’re...
