As institutionally corrupt and its commissioner censured for obstruction of an independent inquiry into the murder of the private detective Daniel Morgan. And cornwall once famed for its g7 summits now playing host to a different kind of visitor. The egyptian vulture not seen on these shores for 150 years. Hello im katty kay in washington, Christian Fraser is in london. President biden has landed in geneva ahead of his meeting with President Putin tomorrow. It will be a tense and tightly choreographed affair at a cheataux on the bank of lake geneva. There will be five hours of meetings. No meals, no breaking of bread said one official. But Everything Else will be on the table. Mr. Biden has been preparing for days with his advisors. He plans to confront mr. Putin, about the recent Ransomware Attacks on u. S. Companies and government agencies. Hell demand moscow stops Harbouring Criminal Hacking groups operating on russian soil. Theyll discuss ukraine, the new start treaty, Cyber Attacks and human rights. Mr biden says President Putin is a worthy adversary but he has also described him as a killer. Our moscow correspondent Steve Rosenberg reports. They Steve Rosenberg reports. Say that the waters of la geneva they say that the waters of lake geneva or have the power to rejuvenate, to cure. But can a Lakeside Summit here revive a political relationship thats in very poor help to eight health . When Vice President joe biden met President Putin he told him he had no soul. More recently he said he was a killer. Mr putin hit back takes one to no one. So when they sit down for talks what message will the white house be putting across to the white house be putting across to the kremlin . Fiona hill was donald trump� s Senior Adviser on brush her. She says moscow must be told to behave. ,. ,. , behave. The biggest danger that the United States behave. The biggest danger that the United States faces behave. The biggest danger that the United States faces from behave. The biggest danger that the United States faces from russia United States faces from russia right now is the coercive, Covert Action that is the hallmark of Vladimir Putin. Be it rental with a higher end cyber criminals, the Constant Hacking and releasing of e mails, Assassination Attempts i mean, we could get on the list of dirty tricks with her and we really need those to stop. But convincing the kremlin need those to stop. But convincing the kremlin to need those to stop. But convincing the kremlin to change need those to stop. But convincing the kremlin to change direction. The kremlin to change direction wont be easy. On the surface at least both president s are coming here to geneva to try to improve ties. Joe biden says he wants a relationship with russia which is stable and predictable. Is stable and predictable. The problem is, unpredictability is Vladimir Putins being. Keeping the west guessing, thats what the kremlin leader is all about. And hes unlikely to give that up unless its on his terms. Arms control and strategic stability may find some Common Ground here. But ifjoe biden raises the issue of human rights in russia, expect the kremlin to hit back. America is not perceived in russia as a democracy, and of course, as a country being superior. I would not expect any great break in relationships, but talking is better than not talking. This is where theyll be talking. At this 18th century villa. As he arrives in geneva, joe biden knows it will be a difficult conversation. Dont expect one short summit to turn adversaries into allies. Steve rosenberg, bbc news, geneva. And the bbc� s mark lowen is in geneva and will be watching for us tomorrow. Its interesting that joe its interesting Thatjoe Biden has arrived in geneva only after meeting with the g7, meeting with nato, meeting with the european leaders.

This is very tightly choreographed. He wants to show putin choreographed. He wants to show putin that choreographed.

Do you still think this is more about resetting the optics for a domestic audience . Yes, i think to a large extent it is. Yes, i think to a large extent it is we yes, i think to a large extent it is. We come up the back of a presidency of four years of donald Trump Presidency of four years of donald trump that was seen as Kowtowing To Putin In Trump that was seen as kowtowing to putin in many ways. Even though eventually putin in many ways. Even though eventually the Trump Administration did fottow eventually the Trump Administration did follow through on sinks singing . . Transmit did follow through on sinks singing . . Transmit . . Did follow through on sinks singing . . Transmit . . Capnext sanctions mandated by congress. You have a new sanctions mandated by congress. Gm, have a new president in the white house who says he wants to change things, he wants to change tacked towards russia and china. Hes obviously playing to his domestic audience. He did come under criticism from some republicans were forgiven putin a summit in the first place. But in his words this is how diplomacy happens. Youve got to speak to adversaries even if you dont always agree with them. Thank you forjoining us. Beautiful backdrop by the way. Not quite sure why were not in geneva. I have a feeling it might be covid. I why were not in geneva. I have a feeling it might be covid. Feeling it might be covid. I dont susect feeling it might be covid. I dont susneet we feeling it might be covid. I dont suspect we will feeling it might be covid. I dont suspect we will be feeling it might be covid. I dont suspect we will be seeing feeling it might be covid. I dont suspect we will be seeing them | suspect we will be seeing them walking hand in hand around the gardens. But tomorrow anyway. No. We should just put on screen this is one thing we have not actually discussed but there are four prisoners in need of discussions because the russians are currently holding two prisoners at the moment. Paul wheeling and trevor reed effectively being held on trumped up charges. But the other two, the russians they are written in american prisons. Shoko who was a Cocaine Smuggler in also put who is one of the most notorious Arm Smugglers in the world. A lot of people saying today that if there was a present swap that really it would at the wrong president. Might encourage pressure. Its encourage pressure. Its interesting encourage pressure. Its interesting because trevor reeds family have been doing a lot of American Media ahead of the summit saying very much they want their son home and that he said, he said he is covid. He put out a statement from a statement presumably core saying hes at his loss of breath and loss in kilos with of his family saying you want them back again and we dont really care whether it is a prison stopjuliet dont really care whether it is a prison stop juliet swap. Dont really care whether it is a prison stopjuliet swap. There is some pressure on the president to get those men home. Its not exactly like for like is it . The number of americans whove died of covid i9 passed the 600,000 mark today. A bleak reminder that although this country feels as if its putting the pandemic behind it, americans are still dying from this virus. But the Vaccination Roll Out has gone well and the rate of fatalities has slowed considerably. Across the United States the return to some normality is progressing much faster than here in europe. But today the us Morning Shows were reporting concerns about the Delta Variant. Not something that has been widely discussed in america thus far. Which is surprising because in california, where today there was a � Grand Reopening only 46 of people are fully vaccinated. And we know from our experience in the uk that while the vaccines are highly effective against the Delta Variant, one jab is not sufficient. So what about current attitudes to the virus and the vaccine. Cbs commissioned a poll with yougov on how americans are feeling about their emergence from the pandemic. When asked if they would be comfortable going to a large event not even half said they would be and yet 59 of those who wont get vaccinated said they would be quite comfortable going to a big event and look at the political breakdown of people who are partially or fully vaccinated. 77 of democrats compared to 52 of republicans. Lets get more on the picture in california and speak to Emergency Physician Haig Aintablian whos in los angeles. The situation in california, we have seen it at various stages has been absolutely catastrophic. And the stories of ambulances not being able to get the people fast enough, Hospital Rooms being completely swamped. Youre getting out of that now but what is the legacy of the last year they are . I now but what is the legacy of the last year they are . Last year they are . I think its been a really last year they are . I think its been a really interesting last year they are . I think its| been a really interesting thing last year they are . I think its i been a really interesting thing to see been a really interesting thing to see i been a really interesting thing to see. I think the last year has been a rotter see. I think the last year has been a roller coaster. Los angeles was kind of a roller coaster. Los angeles was kind of waiting for the first wave when kind of waiting for the first wave when we kind of waiting for the first wave when we saw in new york going through when we saw in new york going through it when we saw in new york going through it and we didnt get much. And then through it and we didnt get much. And then soon after when the rest of the united and then soon after when the rest of the United States was doing 0k los angeies the United States was doing 0k los angeles got really hit really hard. Its angeles got really hit really hard. Its very angeles got really hit really hard. Its very unpredictable whats happening here in la and in california happening here in la and in california in general. But i think moving california in general. But i think moving forward everyones kind of shifting moving forward everyones kind of shifting towards this reopening and there shifting towards this reopening and there is shifting towards this reopening and there is some kind of caution we have there is some kind of caution we have to there is some kind of caution we have to give with regards to how to handle have to give with regards to how to handle the have to give with regards to how to handle the opening of california. Cautions handle the opening of california. Cautions around perhaps things like the Delta Variant . Mast cautions around perhaps things like the Delta Variant . The Delta Variant . Most definitely.

Like you mentioned only about 4696 of like you mentioned only about 46 of caiifornias like you mentioned only about 46 of californias of fully vaccinated. That californias of fully vaccinated. That leaves you with a 50 plus percent that leaves you with a 50 plus percent of the population that is not fully percent of the population that is not fully vaccinated. We do know that they not fully vaccinated. We do know that they Delta Variant can be combated with those that are vaccinated, those that have the vaccine vaccinated, those that have the vaccine a vaccinated, those that have the vaccine a are protected against the delta vaccine a are protected against the Delta Variant. When you are 50 plus percent Delta Variant. When you are 50 plus percent of Delta Variant. When you are 50 plus percent of the population in your opening percent of the population in your opening up the economy and these are vaccinated opening up the economy and these are vaccinated people again go around roaming, vaccinated people again go around roaming, i vaccinated people again go around roaming, ithink vaccinated people again go around roaming, i think we are get a potentially end up seeing a third wave potentially end up seeing a third wave of potentially end up seeing a third wave of potentiallyjust the Delta Variant wave of potentiallyjust the Delta Variant. We do know that the Delta Variant variant. We do know that the Delta Variant is variant. We do know that the Delta Variant is doubling the rate of hospitalisations according to some studies hospitalisations according to some studies. Theres also a lot more contagious studies. Theres also a lot more contagious there are some cautions we have contagious there are some cautions we have to contagious there are some cautions we have to to those that are just really we have to to those that are just really excited for this opening economy really excited for this opening economy that are unvaccinated. When ou look at economy that are unvaccinated. When you look at those economy that are unvaccinated. When you look at those polling economy that are unvaccinated. Lumen you look at those Polling Figures and you see the political divide as to who is having the vaccine and those who are opting out. What do you put that down to . Those who are opting out. What do you put that down to . Honestly, in America Everything you put that down to . Honestly, in America Everything is you put that down to . Honestly, in America Everything is kind you put that down to . Honestly, in America Everything is kind of America Everything is kind of politicized. A lot of the vaccine, the anti vax kind of theories and a lot of the anti vax kind of theories and a lot of the the anti vax kind of theories and a lot of the rumours that float around they have lot of the rumours that float around they have become very political in a sense they have become very political in a sense that they have become very political in a sense that certain parties believe in certain sense that certain parties believe in certain things, certain parties are little in certain things, certain parties are little site doing that more scientific. I dont truck up to scientific. Idont truck up to politics scientific. I dont truck up to politics but we all know that there is politics politics but we all know that there is politics involved in to what party is politics involved in to what party believes and what. Its a little party believes and what. Its a little unfortunate but i think when people little unfortunate but i think when people see covid with their own eyes, people see covid with their own eyes, when people see their Family Members eyes, when people see their Family Members passing away then all of that kind members passing away then all of that kind of get stripped away and you have that kind of get stripped away and you have to make your own decisions and come you have to make your own decisions and come to you have to make your own decisions and come to your own conclusions as to whats and come to your own conclusions as to whats really going on. So the whole to whats really going on. So the whole fear to whats really going on. So the whole fear of vaccination is something that we are trying to tackle something that we are trying to tackle as something that we are trying to tackle as Health Care Workers because tackle as Health Care Workers because we see covid, we see the death because we see covid, we see the death att because we see covid, we see the death all the time. And thankfully over the death all the time. And thankfully over the last few weeks its got a lot lower over the last few weeks its got a lot lower but its not in issue of politics lot lower but its not in issue of politics more than it is in issue of educating politics more than it is in issue of educating people about the science i think educating people about the science i think. ~ ,. , , educating people about the science i think. ~ ,. , think.

Does it divide families and friends . I think you see some of it but i think i think you see some of it but i think the i think you see some of it but i think the issue is more vaccination. Ithink think the issue is more vaccination. I think people have become more comfortable wearing a mask. It is not a comfortable wearing a mask. It is not a big comfortable wearing a mask. It is not a big a comfortable wearing a mask. It is not a big a deal is trying to tell people not a big a deal is trying to tell people why to vaccinate. I think the vaccination people why to vaccinate. I think the Vaccination Issue is a lot bigger of an issue Vaccination Issue is a lot bigger of an issue. But what i do worry about is because an issue. But what i do worry about is because california is opening up and there is because california is opening up and there is no real Verification System and there is no real Verification System on and there is no real Verification System on who got the vaccine and the mandate says that if youve got an vaccinated unit to wear a mask anymore an vaccinated unit to wear a mask anymore i an vaccinated unit to wear a mask anymore. I feel that those who are unvaccinated i can frolic without a mask unvaccinated i can frolic without a mask and unvaccinated i can frolic without a mask and lead to further issues.

Here in california i think its less of a herein california i think its less of a mask here in california i think its less of a mask issue and more of a vaccination of a mask issue and more of a Vaccination Issue. Of a mask issue and more of a Vaccination Issue. Yeah, yeah. Will talk about some Vaccination Issue. Yeah, yeah. Will talk about some of Vaccination Issue. Yeah, yeah. Will talk about some of that Vaccination Issue. Yeah, yeah. Will talk about some of that aggression in a 2nd. Thank you very much. The reason i asked that question is our political reporter was out and about yesterday in whitehall quite extraordinary pictures which were not actually can show you because its quite revolting the way he was treated by anti vax errs out in whitehall. He was chased down. He actually had to run into Downing Streetjust actually had to run into Downing Street just to get away from them. Today the Prime Minister tweeted about it calling on people to behave about it calling on people to behave a lot better. Disgraceful to see the hounding of nick walked doing his job. The media must be able to report the facts without fear or favor. The lifeblood of our democracy. You look at those pictures as ive done today and then you can. Whats going on in the United States and similar things going in the us. The doctor saying its around vaccinations in california but we are still getting anger and aggression around mask. There was a case in georgia over the weekend where somebody went into a shop and was asked to put on their mask by the shop intended by the cashier, he left the shop, came back with a gun and then shot her dead. Because she had asked him to put a mask on. Says so much about guns in this country too but it says that that anger around vaccinations and masks is still here in this country. The us airlines have reported 3000 cases of unruly passengers to the authorities this past year. 2300 of them were down to mask wearing. And thatis them were down to mask wearing. And that is double the amount of cases that is double the amount of cases that the investigator last year. Several people, several airlines have cancelled alcohol on flights because of that uptick in violence on flights. For those watching on Bbc World News well be right back. Scotlands first minister Nicola Sturgeon says the country is likely to maintain its coronavirus restrictions for three weeks afterjune 28 the date when they were expected to be lifted. She said more time was needed to get people fully vaccinated. We are hopeful that vaccination is changing the game in our fight against this virus, perhaps in a very fundamental way. But the emerging evidence still does need close analysis. And more fundamentally, and perhaps this is the most fundamental point of all today, we do need time to get more people vaccinated with both doses. In the race between the virus and the vaccines which we have often spoken about, we are increasingly confident that the vaccines will win that race. But we must not allow the virus to get too far ahead of it. The Vaccination Programme is going exceptionally well, it is being rolled outjust as quickly as supplies allow. But there is a significant proportion of the population that is not yet fully vaccinated with two doses. Less than 20 files between the first face to face meeting between Vladimir Putin and is it abiding. Both sides describe relations as being currently at rock bottom. The biden being currently at rock bottom. Tue Biden Administration being currently at rock bottom. Tta Biden Administration said being currently at rock bottom.

The skies above the South West Of England have been buzzing with all kinds of aircraft in the last few days with Global Leaders in cornwall for the g7 summit. But there was one foreign visitor we didnt come across and its got the twitchers in a flap a bird on the Isles Of Scilly thats not been seen on these shores for 150 years. Jon kay reports. Well, its not a plane, but what kind of bird is it, high above the Isles Of Scilly . Some thought it was an eagle, an osprey, maybe a stork. I mean, ijust of glanced up and thought, oh, thats an egyptian vulture up there. It was will wagstaff, taking visitors on a wildlife tour, who then spotted the bird in a pine tree on the island of tresco, more than 2,000 miles from home. I was surprisingly calm and didnt swear, which in retrospect is a bit surprising because, you know, to see a bird that rare, a big winged thing like many big birds of prey, that typical sort of rather pointy vulture face, and with these they have a yellow face, and they have this sort of rather punky looking hairdo think sort of billy idol, sort of 1970s. Where does this rate on your bird watching experiences . It was just one of those, you know, sort of am i dreaming . Moments, to look up and suddenly realise youre being watched by an egyptian vulture no one has seen and identified in britain for over 150 years, as it turns out. Yeah, itsjust an amazing experience. Bird watchers are so excited theyve been renting boats and racing 25 miles from cornwall to the Isles Of Scilly, even though the vulture still hasnt been officially verified. Experts reckon the bird got lost while migrating, and could vanish as suddenly as he arrived. Jon kay, bbc news. When they said the vultures circling last week and they didnt mean us. They were talking about the bird. Its amazing because its not the only rare bird thats been seen in the British Isles this week. Theyve now got see eagles at lock loman for the first time in 150 years as well. They wrapped two roped off the whole area to help protect the area where they are meeting, whether looking for nests. ,. ,. ,. , � , for nests. Reasonable argon. Hes uuite for nests.

Youre watching bbc news with me, katty kay, in washington. Christian fraser is in london. Our top stories. President biden arrives in geneva ahead of an all important summit with russian president Vladimir Putin. The Metropolitan Police are accused of a form of Institutional Corruption over their failure to solve the murder of a private investigator, Daniel Morgan, over 30 years ago. Also in the programme. Here in the us, the southwest is gripped by an extreme heatwave with temperatures hitting 50 degrees celsius. Well talk to a meteorologist in phoenix. Plus why youve got it all wrong when it comes to writing your out of office. Well explain. For 3a years, the family of Daniel Morgan have fought for answers. Today, an independent inquiry looking into the unsolved murder of the private investigator in 1987 concluded that the failure to find his killer was the result of a form of Institutional Corruption within the Metropolitan Police. The chair of the panel, baroness nuala oloan, said the met had for years concealed its own failings in the investigation to protect itself, refused to confront its own systemic failings. And when it came to her inquiry, the met delayed access to certain documentation. The inquiry began in 2014. It was supposed to take a year, but only in march did they get the last of the relevant documents. The inquiry� s findings have been been welcomed by Daniel Morgans family, who say the met� s commissioner, Dame Cressida dick, should now consider her position. This afternoon, commissioner dick apologised to mr morgans family. Heres our home affairs correspondent, tom symonds. There has never been a case like this an unsolved murder, decades of police failures. The body of 37 year old Daniel Morgan was found in sydenham in southeast london. A family damaged for a generation. Now, the verdict not who did it, but why we dont know who did it. The panel concluded the failures of the Metropolitan Police went beyond a failure to solve this crime. We believe that concealing or denying failings for the sake of an organisations public image is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit. This constitutes a form of Institutional Corruption. Daniel morgan was found dead in this car park, an axe in his head. He was a private investigator, just a small firm above a shop, but a firm, it turned out, linked to corrupt Police Officers. The police describedl the case as a sticker. In other words, its one theyjust cant solve. I four investigations produced at least 12 possible motives for the murder, but no convictions. The report finds the investigations were inadequate and there was evidence corruption played a part. At one point, suspects may have even been tipped off they were about to be arrested. This report is an enormous and damning. This report is enormous and damning. It details forms of corruption at all levels, from the tolerance of poor investigations to Police Officers drinking with people on the limits of legality. But most of all, it says that the Metropolitan Police concealed or denied its failings. In short, that it was dishonest. Todays report finds that in 2005, during a review of the case, the met failed to identify deficiencies in its own police work. In 2011, the force made a statement on possible corruption, but failed to make it clear that Police Officers might have been involved in the murder itself. And when in 2013, this panel began its inquiry, the met delayed handing over documents and made it difficult to get access to a Police Computer system. The current commissioner, cressida dick, is personally accused of obstructing the panels work. Should she now consider her position . No. The commissioner, in her role before me in overseeing this panel, oversaw that disclosure ive talked about, oversaw the release of the homes database and some very difficult, sensitive material that we had to work out how we could best show. All of that was superintended by the commissioner to the best of her ability, and i have continued with her support to take that approach to the panel hitherto. We cannot ignore the findings of this report. Its recommendations are wide ranging and far reaching across aspects of policing, conduct, culture and transparency in public institutions. Today, i have written to Dame Cressida dick to ask her to provide me with a detailed response into the panels recommendations for the Metropolitan Police. For daniels brother, its the end of a 34 year battle. Its vindication, but. Its not like the wounds can heal in this kind of environment, where youve got lies, incompetence, corruption, secrecy, dishonesty, shiftiness, you know, over the murder. The panel said the words Institutional Corruption werentjust a description of something which happened here in the past. Theyre about the present, too. Tom symonds, bbc news. Lets talk to leroy logan, former superintendent with the Metropolitan Police. Could have you on the programme. The met accused of Institutional Corruption. In case we presume that was the sort was clear that fairness was the sort was clear that fairness was appointed in 2014 and was still waiting for relevant documents from the met as late as lot march of this year the baroness. The buck ultimately stops with the commissioner, doesnt it . Absolutely. Especially such a long and drawn absolutely. Especially such a long and drawn out inquiry, that the organisation has to be seen as open, Transparent Organisation has to be seen as open, transparent and accountable, and it ust transparent and accountable, and it just doesnt pass the sniff test that the just doesnt pass the sniff test that the commissioner has been seen to be a that the commissioner has been seen to be a blockage. She hasnt been seen to be a blockage. She hasnt been seen to to be a blockage. She hasnt been seen to be to be a blockage. She hasnt been seen to be facilitating. And its not for seen to be facilitating. And its not for the first time, and i think thats not for the first time, and i think thats why not for the first time, and i think thats why people are questioning her position, to say listen, if she cant her position, to say listen, if she cant do her position, to say listen, if she cant do the her position, to say listen, if she cant do the job, move aside and get someone cant do the job, move aside and get someone to cant do the job, move aside and get someone to do it properly. It� s someone to do it properly. Its devastating someone to do it properly. Tt� s devastating for the reputation of the met police, and we have been here before. The baroness said today that the met needs to look at the way that it vets its officers and staff, and she suggested they should be vetting for any involvement in organised crime.

Heat, humidity and thunderstorms are on the weather menu for some, but not all of us over the next couple of days. The humid air will be wafting and across the south and east of the uk. To the northwest of the jet stream is where we have some much cooler, fresher air which will be working its way into northwestern areas. Where we have the heat and humidity, thats where were likely to see thunderstorms breaking out there wednesday night and thursday, but it will be hit and miss for some places. Quite a lot of rain. Others likely to avoid the downpours and stay pretty much drive. Generally speaking, humid with thunderstorms for the south and east of the uk. Drier and fresher towards the north and west. Through wednesday, we can see evidence of that split in our fortunes. Cool conditions for Northern Ireland and much of scotland, with sunshine and one or two showers. The sound of cloud and rain sinking across northern england, the southwest of england, misty conditions with that. The wind quite brisk across northwestern areas, but much lighter winds further south and east. Thats where well see some sunshine, and that is where the humid air will make its presence felt with temperatures up to 29 or 30 degrees. With that building heat and humidity as we head through wednesday night, were likely to see showers and thunderstorms dripping from the Channel Islands across a good part of england, especially towards the east. Maybe dripping into east wales. Some uncertainty about exactly how the showers will be distributed, but they are likely to continue in places as we get on into thursday. Furtherwest, continue in places as we get on into thursday. Further west, we see spells of sunshine, cooler conditions here. Still something relatively humid down towards the southeast corner. Across the southeast, we could see further pulses of Heavy Rain Drifting through, whereas with higher pressure further west, thats where we will see more in the way of dry and sunny weather across Northern Ireland, scotland, Northern Western Parts of england and wales. Spells of sunshine. Some outbreaks of rain, temperatures here likely to be a little lower by the stage. Highest values of 21 degrees. That area of High Pressure i showed you is likely to do to topple further east as we get into saturday. This is set to be the drier day of the weekend. 14 21 degrees, losing the humidity at this stage. Sunday things get more complicated with this area of low pressure drifting in from the west. Were likely to tap into some more Humid Airfrom the were likely to tap into some more humid air from the south, were likely to tap into some more Humid Airfrom the south, and were likely to tap into some more humid air from the south, and that could bring the return of some heavy, thundery downpours too. Many parts of the uk will see some rains at some port at sunday, slightly higher temperatures. 22 degrees in london. 17 for glasgow. What about next week . Ill show you the expected position of the jet stream once again, because it is likely to dip to the south of the uk. That will allow cool air to flood across most areas. Our Computer Weather Models do vary for next week, but it looks as if low pressure will be in charge. So, that is likely to mean some rather unsettled weather. There is likely to be some rain at times as we head through next week and we will have lost the heat and humidity. Generally, it will feel rather cool. Thats all for me, bye for now. Tonight at ten the Metropolitan Police comes in for severe criticism for its mishandling of a murder case from the 1980s. Daniel morgan was a private investigator looking into Police Corruption when he was murdered in 1987 an independent inquiry found multiple failings in the met� s handling. We believe that concealing or denying failings for the sake of an organisations public image is dishonesty. This constitutes a form of Institutional Corruption. The murder took place in south london in 1987 Daniel Morgans family say theyve suffered deeply as a result of the met� s failings. We knew there was corruption in this case and that we were being lied to again and again and again. And the family says Dame Cressida dick,
