Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the importance of public confidence in policing, stating, "We are going to pick [the probe] up and complete that accountability review because it is important that the public have confidence in the police including of course the armed police." He highlighted the necessity of fostering trust between the public and police, particularly after the incident involving Chris Kaba, which raised questions about police accountability.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley expressed concern over police accountability, stating, "the system holding police to account is broken" and emphasizing that "no police officer was above the law." His remarks reflect the need for a more robust framework to support officers while ensuring public safety and accountability.
