A policeman's lot...

The Derbyshire constabulary have a male voice choir.  Or maybe, that should be "had" because the Chief Constable has said they can no longer use the name of the constabulary unless they allow women to join.  Now anybody who knows anything about choral singing knows that it's not that easy.  Opening the choir to female voices would require a complete rebalancing of their sound and reconsideration of their presentation and  repertoire.  So the choirmaster has reluctantly decided to sever his association with the constabulary and rename the choir as the Derbyshire Community Male Voice Choir.
