EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1990s, Sir Paul Condon, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner at the time (now Baron Condon), addresses a crowd during the launch of Operation Bumblebee, a groundbreaking campaign for burglary prevention initiated by the Met Police in 1993. Sir Paul, dressed in his police uniform, stands confidently at the podium, holding a microphone, ready to engage the audience. Behind him, two police officers in full uniform, attentively listen to the Commissioner's speech. The intriguing name of the operation, Operation Bumblebee, is symbolized by the large inflatable bee prop, adding a playful yet effective touch to the campaign. Operation Bumblebee aimed to reduce the number of burglaries in London by increasing public awareness, providing security advice, and increasing police presence in high-risk areas. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of community engagement and proactive policing that defined the Metropolitan Police during the 1990s. Sir Paul's passionate and determined demeanor underscores the importance of the campaign and the commitment of the Met Police to keeping Londoners safe.
