I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'london? that's virtually everywhere' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'opposed to police' is the wordplay.
'opposed' becomes 'averse' (synonyms).
'to' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'police' becomes 'met' (London Metropolitan Police).
'averse' after 'met' is 'METAVERSE'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
