Baroness Casey Review of Met Police 2023: Summary Overview

The Casey Review of culture and standards within the Met Police this week published their wide-ranging final report. It's a fantastic strategic report, raising a mix of controversial issues and proposals for the Met Police.
However, at 363 pages and 120,000 words, equivalent to a 500-page novel, few will have actually read this important document (beyond the media outrage articles coinciding with its publication). Even the strategic summary and recommendations amount to 36 pages. Whether you agree or not, most people simply don't want to spend more than 10 mins on even such significant reports.
Therefore, this exclusive video is for busy cops, senior police leaders, PCCs, Mayors, and other interested parties alike. For aspiring leaders in the Federated ranks, I even include example police promotion board questions. If you are aspiring for promotion in policing, you will be the generation fixing the issues and implementing the significant changes.
While this relates to the Metropolitan Police, many cops and senior leaders will recognise the cross-cutting themes, which may exist in their own forces.
I hope this gives busy cops aspiring to promotion (especially to Inspector ranks and above!) some useful strategic insights and food for thought. In addition, this video may be a helpful briefing to communicating Baroness Casey's flagship report to all levels and stakeholders within policing.
Here's the full report if you want to dive deeper:

This video was produced by Rank Success. It is a representative and fair summary of this comprehensive written report on policing. Towards the end, the video also includes further reading suggestions, example relevant interview questions and presentation scenarios, plus further support for UK police promotion candidates.
Please get in touch if you'd like other critical reports summarised and published in this more digestible format. This is an important step which most publishers overlook, i.e. they create massive reports that unfortunately no-one wants to read. You might also be interested in my PEEL report summaries and 'All Leaders Read' video series.

The terminology being utilised does not impress me, it sounds like typical manegerial jargon that fails to get to the root of problems. What is required is a proper and independent organisation outside of the police to enforce punitive action against officers that comit offenses. The Legal system could do this but the CPS is just another branch of the state that is up the arse of the Police. Complaints get sent to the phoney PCA who fail to act upon them.
We can't afford to prosecute all police officers that break the law, if we did we would soon have no police, but we could certainly make an example of a quota of the worst cases and apply genuine and effective penalties to the rest. A mere ticking off and a black mark on their record which will have no real effect is not enough. FINE THEM!

CPS is absolutely not up the arse of Police. They're nothing but a thorn in the side of Police and are the real issue that should be drawing the ire of people when they complain about lenient sentences or the police seemingly 'not doing anything'.
