What's the next standard to drop? Will 3 limbs will suffice? Or an IQ equal to your shoe size?

Subtle, very subtle!

That was done simply to open the doors for more women to join. Which apparently is a desirable thing because according to the research and all the experts sitting in their universities we coppers are a bunch of sexist fullas and the culture of the police is that of a heterogenic macho cult of masculinity. Increasing the proportion of short women in our ranks has made all the difference, we are now much more in touch with our feminine sides, can't you tell?

You better pray that some socialogist with the Gummints ear doesn't think you guys need some more people with criminal backgrounds to help you all relate to your clients.

That's right... now think of all the other common denominators of many of the clients... hmm...

ethinicity, IQ, personality profile, morality, socio-economic and educational background...

Clients? What PC shit are you talking? They are defendants not clients.

Can't call em defendants on the ward. However it'd be a great thing if they could all decide what to be called here. Patients, clients, service users, it goes on and on (PC dribble).
