          @BBCBreaking there is surely something wrong with a system that takes 29 years to issue an unreserved apology.

          @BBCBreaking too little, too late. The London police should have made that apology a long time ago.

          “@BBCBreaking: Unreserved apology issued by London's Metropolitan...” wonder what they're doing now which they'll apologise for later.
