Sergent Allan might concievably defend his actions by saying he was only doing the job he is paid for.
If so, he’d at least have some sort of point.
The Real blame lies with those who were culpable and stupid enough to create the post of ‘Hate Crime Officer’ in the first place.
An act just begging to attract misuse and corruption of all descriptions.

The “something more pernicious” happens all the time. In a sense its a good thing the Sarge. went public as he gives a nice glimpse of the sort of nonsense that happens all the time in Public Services. After all, all he was doing was enacting what he’d learned in “Diversity Training” .

The helpless dupe PC is implicitly (whether he recognises it or not) trying to abolish the differences between masculine and feminine by abolishing the words. Of course this is an impossibility, but impossibilities have never deterred ideologues.
