CRESSIDA DICK’S resignation will not solve the “deep-rooted institutional problems” in the Metropolitan Police, justice campaigners warned today as calls for reform grew.

Dame Cressida confirmed on Thursday that she would resign as the force’s commissioner after London Mayor Sadiq Khan declared that he had lost confidence in her leadership and ability to root out sexism, racism, homophobia and bullying in the Met.

The police chief has been notorious since she directed the operation that saw officers run down and execute innocent Brazilian electrician Jean-Charles de Menezes in 2005.
