Well, that's interesting the Met appears to be controlled by the Mayor, the London Assembly as well as the Home Office (The Tories): The Metropolitan Police (commonly known as the Met) operates under a governance structure that involves several bodies. Let’s explore who controls and oversees the Met: Mayor of London: Since January 2012, the Mayor of London has been responsible for the governance of the Met through the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC). The Mayor sets the strategic direction for policing in London through the Police and Crime Plan. Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis: The Met operates under the leadership of the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis. The Commissioner is directly accountable to both the Home Office and the Mayor of London through MOPAC. The Home Secretary and the Mayor hold the Commissioner accountable for the delivery of policing services. London Policing Board: A new addition to the Met’s governance structures, the London Policing Board, plays a role in oversight. The London Assembly also provides a formal check and balance on policing in London through its Police and Crime Committee. The committee publicly scrutinizes MOPAC and matters related to policing in London. Financial Oversight: MOPAC oversees the Met’s financial accounts through the Investment Advisory Board (which also monitors estates) and the MOPAC/MPS Audit Panel (which holds the Met accountable for various governance areas). The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) oversees complaints made about the Met and ensures public confidence in police complaints. In summary, the Mayor of London, MOPAC, and other oversight bodies collectively control and monitor the Met’s operations and funding. Digging around all this would certainly be interesting
