Former Assistant Commissioner of the Met Police Neil Basu talks candidly about serving in Counter Terror when the threat level against Britain was at its highest since the Northern Ireland troubles of the ‘70s.
In part two of our special, Neil quotes Dickens when he describes those seven years as “the best of times and the worst of times”, liaising closely with MI5 to stop terrorists attacking the UK.
Neil reveals more stories from his book Turmoil - an extraordinary insight into serving in the biggest police force in the UK – and what he misses about being ‘in the room’ at the heart of policing.
