Maybe you could wear 10 pairs of socks to boost your height a bit.

My uncle did that back in the day of their being a height requirement. True Bill

He was rejected twice and on his 3rd attempt he tried the sock trick and got in. Did 30 years and retired about 2 years ago!

Fair play to him.

I know PSNI describes itself as an Equal Opportunities Employer, in it's policy directive 0406.
But why does it ignore point 4 (2) entitled Sex Discrimination, in that it refuses to recruit individuals who "intend to, is undergoing or has undergone gender reassignment"?

I've never seen that asked before, so I suspect you'd have to send in a Freedom of Information request to get the official reason.
