Last week, the review into the way Scotland Yard dealt with the vigil on London’s Clapham Common cleared the force of wrongdoing and reprimanded politicians for criticising officers without knowing the full facts. Police attempt to break up a vigil for Sarah Everard at the bandstand on Clapham Common. At 7.26pm, a video of female protesters struggling with police was posted on Twitter and quickly gained 12.5 million views. He was followed by Conservative MP Caroline Nokes, Chair of the Women and Equalities Committee, and London Mayor Mr Khan. The MoS contacted eight MPs who tweeted on that Saturday evening but not one apologised.
