2:58Now PlayingA woman arrested at the Sarah Everard vigil has called for the abolition of the Metropolitan Police after she was awarded a payout by the force for its actions.
Patsy Stevenson was handcuffed by officers on Clapham Common in March 2021 while COVID restrictions were in place.
Speaking to the Politics Hub with Sophy Ridge, Ms Stevenson said: "We need to keep up public pressure on the police; they need to absolutely radically reform the entire institution or abolish it, if I'm honest.
"I think I'm at that point. I never thought I'd say that I agree with abolishment, but it's looking like it's a good idea in my books."
