She promised that a "high-profile" figure would look into everything surrounding police culture, from its leadership to the way officers treat each other and the public.

But one former leading police officer has claimed that the Met is like a "safe haven" for sex offenders.

We talked to the former chief constable of Greater Manchester Police, Sir Peter Fahy, and to Paige Kimberly.

She was shocked to see messages, she says, were “graphic, sexual and derogatory to women”, posted there.

She claimed that after reporting them her job offer was suddenly withdrawn. A tribunal has now ruled in her favour and she's due to be compensated.

We began by asking her how she responded when she first became aware of the messages
