Social media
At the Met we are committed to communicating and engaging with Londoners and listening to your ideas and opinions. You can keep up to date with what we are doing through our social media channels.
Crime should not be reported through our social media channels. In the event of an emergency always dial 999.
By ‘liking’ the Met’s Facebook page you will receive updates in your timeline about our campaigns, appeals, roadshows and more. Our page gives you the opportunity to comment on our stories and provide us with feedback.
We have a number of different Twitter channels with updates about different areas of the MPS. We are in the process of getting each one of our 32 boroughs on Twitter. Follow your local borough to receive updates about policing and MPS priorities.
