Tim Newburn discusses the Met’s decision to investigate lockdown gatherings at Downing Street. He writes that the delayed decision to intervene, and do so in a way that may affect the political process, comes on the back of a number of controversies involving the police, whose reputation is now thoroughly tarnished.
