The New Metropolitan Police Boss on LBC 97.3
The new man in charge of Scotland Yard has told LBC 97.3 - officers were not quick enough to stop violence during the riots in London.Speaking to LBC 97.3's Nick Ferrari, Bernard Hogan-Howe has praised the officers involved but says the force needs to improve its use of intelligence.
Mr Hogan Howe also says he will not use a cut in police numbers as an excuse for any failings and he wants to implement an initiative to allow Londoners to tell police if they know someone who is carrying a knife.
