🧵Ever wondered how @MetPoliceUK officers feel about Baroness Casey's review into misogyny, racism + homophobia in policing?
Fortunately, many serving cops shared their opinions via the force's intranet.
Here's a thread of their comments.🍎

@LayahHeilpern I feel sad for you that you’re not happy enough in yourself that you feel comfortable with the idea of being alone. I hope you find some peace with yourself.
@RaptureIsNearer When god asks you why you didn’t spend your time and money helping the sick, poor and hungry instead of butting in on other people’s sex lives, what will be your answer?
So earlier today I looked great (just facts) and this random guy sexualised me, saying I was 'really turning him on' and had 'an amazing body'.
And it made me so incredibly sad and I couldn't really put my finger on why. But I think I've worked it out 🧵
@EMollaliu@splendid_pete@jacksonhinkle Enis, that is what the best reporters do, surely? Otherwise how would the great news stories of history have ever broken?
I’d imagine london streets will be cleared of people who are homeless for the coronation. Imagine if Charles decided to use some of his enormous wealth to house them all for a year. But he won’t. They’ll just be hidden and then put back.
@daniel_m_lavery I loved this one, it spoke directly to my heart and deeply validated my love for train travel. Might I recommend, next time you come to the Uk, the london-Scotland sleeper. The best nights sleep imaginable, then they bring you a small bowl of porridge in the morning. Bliss.
What a fucking life led. Truly. Back when the Met stormed into the RVT for it being a gay bar, all wearing rubber gloves to “protect” themselves during the HIV crisis, Paul O’Grady was on stage as Lily and immediately quipped “Looks like we have help with the washing up!” Iconic.
@PaulNewsome36@JohannaSaunders Paul it’s a painful realisation and I can understand you resisting it. But you need to really listen to women, and one day when you do you will understand. And it’s going to hurt because you will realise it applies to all women, including your loved ones.
@JersyDvl@davoolson@GBBranstetter Im talking to someone here who’s engaging in good faith not just making statements to provoke a reaction. Do the same or get blocked.
@snuffleupiggis@davoolson@GBBranstetter If you think trans folk are the ones with the power here I honestly don’t know what to tell you. I don’t understand how you think it would work if what you said is true? If trans folk are in power and truly want inclusion, why would they do the things you’re saying?
