00:00I think you can both recognise the bravery of officers who run towards incidents that most of
00:04us, including myself, would certainly want to run away from, and find the appropriate forum to say
00:09that no one, especially the police, should be above scrutiny. The reason why I've apologised is I
00:14accept that wasn't the appropriate forum. As a member of the London Assembly, a place I know
00:18you know well, the Police and Crime Committee would be an appropriate place, or indeed a meeting
00:22with the Commissioner, which I'm pleased I've reached out and he's now agreed to. I do also
00:26think, by the way, open letters aren't an appropriate way to do politics either in a local election,
00:32but I accept all of that and I'll be having that conversation with the Commissioner.
