Metropolitan Police Federation

MPF Statement following PC Perry Lathwood Conduct Hearing

Paula Dodds, Chair of the Metropolitan Police Federation, said: "The Metropolitan Police Federation notes the ruling of misconduct at the hearing for PC Perry Lathwood.

"Short video clips of incidents viewed from the comfort of sterile and calm environments rarely take into account what police officers in London encounter on a daily basis - or provide a genuine understanding of the true nature of our difficult and dangerous job.

"Police officers have no issue with scrutiny and accounting for their actions and use of force - but this has to take into account the dynamic and split-second challenges and the reality of our challenging role.

"PC Lathwood can finally put this incident behind him and carry on his career. We ask that he and his family are now left alone to get on with their lives.

“We thank PC Lathwood’s legal team and his Police Federation representative for their hard work over what has been a long and arduous process.”
