If anyone thinks that the orders dispatching all of London's Blue Lobsters typically come from the Home Office on Whitehall or Scotland Yard, they are gravely mistaken.
Or rather, such understanding is not comprehensive.
Because for Scotland Yard, especially the Police Intelligence Department, the orders they receive are generally not only from the Home Secretary, Lord John Russell, and the Commissioner of the Greater London Police Department, Charles Rowan. In many special circumstances, the decisions of Sir Arthur Hastings are also crucial.
Before this April, Sir Arthur's decision-making power often stemmed from his enduring prestige and influence at Scotland Yard.
And after the establishment of the Police Commissioner Committee, his decision-making power began to appear in the form of various guidance suggestions on the desk of Chief Inspector Charles Field of the Police Intelligence Department.
