HAROLD HOLLAND

..

CHIEF CONSTABLE, METROPOLITAN POLICE, LONDON, SCOTLAND YARD

Harold Holland, known as 'Dirty Harry', or 'Dutch' to his high level associates, after the Clint Eastwood movies, and because of his surname - is the corrupt Chief Constable of Britain's Metropolitan police, based at Scotland Yard. Nothing new there. It is impossible not to be corrupt in high ranking positions as a serving British officer of the law. Mainly because, the system turns a blind eye to drug money, and other immoral earnings, as part of a justice culture, where judges may be bought, and need to tow the line, or not be selected, by an equally suspect Ministry of Justice.

There are of course honest officers in the ranks, and independent Judges (those not Masons). And this is where corrupt law officials need to be particularly adept at dodging bullets. Recognising those recruits enthusiastic about creating a transparent society, based on fairness and decency - and demoting them, or constructively dismissing them, if they question the institutionalised discrimination, and doing favours for other corrupt officials - such as, not investigating crimes committed by those in the fold.

He sometimes wishes that he'd chosen that path.

Harry is divorced, working his way through the female ranks and secretaries, who are fool enough to be seduced, as part of a career move. His roving eye is the reason his wife, an analyst in a different anti-terrorism section, left him.

Harold, is tall, slightly overweight man who dresses impeccably, when not in uniform. He is balding, with dark hair and grey tinges. He has a rather large nose, Sherlock Holmes style. He also suffers from hemorrhoids, from a rich diet, a condition that makes him somewhat irritable at times, and occasionally incapacitates him - much to his annoyance. 

Harry's passion is a game of golf at the weekend, usually Sunday, when the crime rate has dropped. This helps him to reduce his cholesterol level - even though his game is average. He can always kid himself, and expand on the one or two lucky shots on the green, at the 19th hole. Yes, Harold likes a whisky and soda or two. The Famous Grouse, or sometimes, a good single malt - when the going gets tough.

He drives a cherished Jaguar E-Type, often too fast for built up London, even when sounding his siren. He has spent years and buckets of cash on restoring this vehicle.
