"Matt Cane, general secretary of the MPF, said: The overwhelming majority of our members at chief inspector rank give everything they have, often at considerable personal cost, to meet the growing and complex demands placed upon them. They deserve support and respect, not threats of forced distribution', performance processes', or dignified exits'. The proposed voluntary exit scheme, framed as a quick and dignified route out', is a thinly veiled threat."
"It comes amid wider upheaval in the Met, following a damning racism review and the removal of more than 1,400 staff since 2022 as part of Sir Mark's drive to clean up the force. The Metropolitan Police Federation has accused commissioner Sir Mark Rowley of making a thinly veiled threat over jobs after he reportedly launched a voluntary exit pay-off for senior ranks."
Sir Mark Rowley proposed a voluntary exit pay-off for senior officers from chief inspector to chief superintendent, offering an exit route for those not up for his planned overhaul. The Metropolitan Police Federation accused the proposal of being a thinly veiled threat that could pressure or coerce long-serving leaders out under the guise of improving performance. The federation warned the scheme sends a chilling message that futures may be decided by conformity to a narrow leadership definition rather than by performance. The proposal follows a damning racism review and the removal of over 1,400 staff since 2022 during a drive to clean up the force.
