By sally
“Britain’s biggest police force will this week be plunged into crisis after one of its own leaders sues, alleging he was the victim of racial discrimination. Assistant commissioner Tarique Ghaffur, third most senior officer at Scotland Yard, is expected to issue employment tribunal proceedings that heap fresh pressure on Sir Ian Blair, the Metropolitan police commissioner.”
