Richard Morrison of The Times is very impressed by Bernard Hogan-Howe, the new Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police.
His watchwords for a good police officer are humility, integrity, transparency.
I was impressed by the fact that both Morrison himself & the sub who wrote the headline over his column in The Times resisted the temptation to point out that this makes hit men of the police.
Well, I suffer from no such inhibition.
The temptation may have made the Evening Standard nervous however. Why else would they have changed the order of the words in their headline & report to a promise of 'humility, transparency & integrity’
