Boris Johnson has full confidence in Metropolitan Police chief Dame Cressida Dick, Downing Street said, following criticism over the force’s handling of a vigil in memory of Sarah Everard.Asked whether the Prime Minister has “full confidence” in Dame Cressida, Mr Johnson’s official spokesman said: “Yes, he does.”Pressed on why he continued to have faith in the Met Police commissioner amid calls for her to resign, the spokesman added: “The Met and inspectors are rightly looking at the events of Saturday night but the commissioner continues to have the PM’s full confidence.”
