Do not despair! I am sure this time round London Zoo will take apt advice and not rely on a quick fix solution. I find their attitude fair and clear in goal.

K.B. I don't despair about this. Like you I would prefer a longer wait and the correct choice made, than a 'quick fix' and a non-breeder male installed.
This idea of a male from America is a good one.
This is because virtually all the less- represented males left in Europe have 'problem' backgrounds and I would not like to see one of them brought in. A transfer from America could indeed be the solution but are we getting too far into the realms of speculation here?
