Too many women and homosexuals in Downing Street?

Even the heterosexual advisers don't seem to be much cop.

And staff turnover is frightening.  

Do you think the PM is being well-advised?

Perhaps he would be well-advised to appoint Claire Khaw as Downing Street adviser to replace Kate Fall at £100 pa? I can double up as Press Secretary if my salary is doubled.

So what if there are many women in Downing Street anyway, what is your problem?

You wouldn't want the government to be effeminate, would you, exclusively preoccupied with feminine issues? That could prove dangerous and costly.
