– Pete Clark
– Andy Hayman
– Bob Quick
– John Yates

The first three all left under a cloud for different reasons but close examination of their activities reveals a staggering record on negligence, incompetence and sheer, mind-boggling ineptitude.

Coupled with very weak management and a corporate culture where accountability, responsibility, duty and ethical behaviour were absent, it is little surprise that current scrutiny has exposed a corrupt regime that has lasted for years.

Supine political leadership by Parliament and a Metropolitan Police Authority that seems to have been in a coma allowed this individuals to literally get away with murder, as in the case of Daniel Morgan, the private investigator found dead with an axe in his head just as he was about to reveal police corruption and links between the police and the criminal world.

Too late, Clegg. Their actions in London have made sure of that, between Kettling and arresting people who were told they were free to go.
