Over 300 Met Police in UK ADMIT Freemasonic Links!
Over 300 Metropolitan Police officers and staff have declared involvement with Freemasonry following new transparency rules, prompted by concerns from the Daniel Morgan inquiry into corruption and lack of public trust, leading to legal challenges from Freemason organizations who see the policy as discriminatory but the Met defends it as vital for confidence.
The Metropolitan Police now requires officers to declare membership in the Freemasons or similar hierarchical organizations as part of a new policy to boost public trust.
This policy stems from the Daniel Morgan Independent Panel report, which highlighted Freemason involvement as a source of suspicion in the unsolved 1987 murder case and recommended tighter rules.
Over 300 officers and staff have declared their membership, with many acknowledging the perception that such affiliations affect impartiality. The United Grand Lodge of England and other Masonic bodies are taking legal action, on grounds of discrimination and unfairly targeting members.
