Half of the front desks at London police stations will close as the Met has unveiled a new money-saving plan.

The Mail's interactive map shows the full list of affected areas after Scotland Yard admitted it would break its pledge to have one counter accessible 24 hours a day in each of the capital's 32 boroughs.

Only 20 desks will remain open with 18 set to be axed by the Metropolitan Police as the force scrambles to balance its £260million budget shortfall.

The Met has faced criticism it will now be 'less accessible' as critics claim the change is 'another nail in the coffin of community policing'.

Met Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist and Kaya Comer-Schwartz, Sadiq Khan's deputy mayor for policing and crime, are expected to face a number of angry London Assembly members at an extraordinary additional meeting where the proposals will be discussed.
