A safer Square Mile supports a stronger UK economy. 👮♂️🏙️
The Bank of England’s Chief Operating Officer, Sarah John, met City of London Police officers at a community drop-in event last week.
That partnership spirit was echoed at the Police Authority Board Annual Dinner, celebrating the force’s work protecting communities, tackling fraud, and supporting growth.

I welcome the news of the Duke of Duchess of Sussex's return to the United Kingdom. Anyone not praying for reconciliation and peace for the Royal Family in The King's advancing years should pause and reflect. No family is perfect.

A safe City is a successful City. The Square Mile generates £109bn for the UK economy and helps deliver over £100bn in annual UK FPS tax revenues. Last year, City Police supported 170,000 fraud victims. Thanks to @CityPolice, which keeps the City safe and leads the national fight against fraud. #SaferCityStreets
Congratulations to @andyburnham & his incoming new Government.
