I thought "gay" orientation was a prerequisite for advancement within
the upper echelons of the Met these days.

Indeed.  And look at the mess that's in.  The whole damned thing is
crawling with gays, women and various forms of tribal-chief.

Just a matter of time before 'Village People' do a recruitment song
