Black police officers’ group calls for ethnic minorities to boycott joining Met

Move comes in protest at racist and vexatious' misconduct investigation into a leading officer

The National Black Police Association (NBPA) has called for ethnic minorities to boycott joining the Metropolitan police in protest at a racist and vexatious" misconduct investigation into a leading officer.

In the first call for a boycott in 20 years, the association claims Charles Ehikioya, chair of the Met Black Police Association (Met BPA), has been targeted because he voiced concerns about the poor behaviour of senior officers - and the racism he and his colleagues are suffering.
