‘Wrong & unsatisfactory’ | RAF's D&I quota discriminated against white men, probe rules

An initiative to boost gender and ethnic diversity within the Royal Air Force discriminated against white men, the air force has admitted.

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) launched a probe following the resignation of a female Group Captain - in charge of RAF recruitment - who quit after claiming white men were unfairly penalised by the force’s policies to increase the number of women and ethnic minority recruits.
