"Boris Johnson and David Cameron need to explain why the Metropolitan police are being so hard hit." The met aren't being hard hit, the whole of E&W is... if anything, the met has been largely shielded from cuts due to sports day, however, they have a huge amount (hundreds of millions) of cuts to make so this isn't really a surprise, it's only going to get worse for the met now sports day is over as the last news article (http://www.bbc.co.uk...london-18646809) i read the met still have a few hundred million in savings to make after all their cost saving ideas - which will have to come from somewhere, the article saying potential losses 8000 jobs - 6000 of which will…
