The mayor of London and the Commissioner are expected to discuss ‘community relations’ after calls for the police chief to go.
Met Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley will meet Mayor Sadiq Khan on Monday to discuss ‘community relations’ in the wake of complaints about the force’s handling of pro-Palestinian protests
However, Government sources have played down the possibility that Sir Mark could be sacked and he is understood to retain the confidence of the mayor. Both Mr Falter and former home secretary Suella Braverman called for Sir Mark to go, accusing him of “emboldening” antisemites by failing to curtail the now regular marches through the capital.
The Government has said mayor of London Sadiq Khan should hold Sir Mark Rowley to account for his force’s actions “But in the end the Met must have the confidence of the communities they serve and it is right that they have apologised for the way the incident was handled and their original public response.”
