EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, taken in the 1980s, Conservative politician William Whitelaw, Viscount Whitelaw of Masmoor (1918-1999), pays close attention to the Metropolitan Police cadets during their parade. Whitelaw, who served as Home Secretary from 1979 to 1981 and as Deputy Prime Minister from 1981 to 1983, is seen inspecting the young recruits with a group of police commissioners. The politician, dressed in a smart suit and wearing a peaked cap with the Tory party insignia, looks intently at the cadets as they march past in their crisp uniforms and gleaming caps. The occasion was likely a special event marking the completion of the cadets' training, and Whitelaw's presence as a VIP guest underscores the importance of the police force and the role of political leaders in supporting their work. The cadets, who are also wearing gloves, appear focused and attentive as they pass before their inspectors, eager to demonstrate their skills and dedication. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the Metropolitan Police and the role of political figures in their training and development. The image is also a reminder of the importance of community engagement and the support of political leaders in fostering the next generation of law enforcement professionals. Overall, the photograph captures a sense of pride, discipline, and tradition, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical images of the Metropolitan Police or Conservative Party.
