Is Cressida Dick right for Met job?
IT BEGGARS belief that Cressida Dick could even be in the frame for such a critical policing post as Met Commissioner [“Mayor gives extra £27m to the Met ‘to keep the officers London needs’”, February 20]. Ms Dick was Operational Commander on the day of the fatal shooting of
Jean Charles de Menezes at Stockwell Underground station in 2005.
Subsequent investigations called her competency into question. While the deceased’s family still long for accountability, wouldn’t it be inappropriate to promote her further?
