Lady Diana Brittan, the widow of ex-蜜芽传媒 Secretary Lord Brittan who was falsely accused of being part of a paedophile ring in Westminster, has criticised the decision to drop an investigation into the officer who led an inquiry into the claims.

Speaking to Emma Barnett, Lady Brittan says the misconduct proceedings against Met Police officer Steve Rodhouse were 鈥渜uietly dropped鈥�.

Lady Brittan says it showed a 鈥渃omplete lack of professionalism鈥� and that her trust in the Met, and the Independent Office for Police Conduct, was 鈥渟everely undermined鈥�.

In a statement, the IOPC said it was "regrettable" that they received material so late and acknowledged they "could have taken further steps" in seeking assurances from the Met that the material was unavailable.

They added the decision to drop the proceedings doesn't change their finding that the Met's handling of Operation Midland was "unacceptable".
