The head of recruitment for the United Kingdom's Royal Air Force, a senior female officer, has reportedly resigned in protest of a diversity policy critics say has set "impossible" targets and jeopardized U.K. national security.
White male applicants are being excluded from job offers in the RAF under diversity guidelines set by Air Chief Marshal Sir Mike Wigston, Sky News reported. Sources who spoke to the outlet complained that diversity targets set by air force leadership have led to hiring restrictions that are threatening military preparedness, comparing the situation to the pre-World War II era.
"Then you look at the head of the RAF and he's prepared to break the operational requirement of the air force just to meet diversity [targets]," one source said.
Defense leadership in the United Kingdom has set a target to increase the ratio of female recruits joining the armed forces to 30% by 2030. In the RAF, officials aim to have 40% of all recruits be women by the end of the decade, which is more than double the current level, according to Sky News.
A similar target has been set for ethnic minorities, with the Ministry of Defense aiming to have 20% of all air force recruits be non-whites in the same time frame, Sky News reports.
[The UK is 87% white but dropping fast]
Russia is going to cut through Europe and Britain like a hot knife through butter.
Russia can't even cut through Ukraine, and it will never get another chance to invade anyone else after being beaten by Ukraine.
Russia isn't fighting Ukraine. They're fighting NATO.
No, Russia is fighting Ukraine, and Ukraine alone.
If Russia started to fight NATO, the Russians would get wiped out in a matter of days.
Ukraine is bitchslapping the Russians around with just a handful of US HIMARS artillery. Imagine what would happen if the actual US Army started to show the Russians how real men fight wars?
You'd have a lot of dead poor conscripts from Siberia, who died without ever having seen a toilet.

Fuck out of here with your propaganda. Ukraine is a dirty proxy war started by the US. No matter how you look at it, the US is doing to russia what the US would never accept themselves. Go put russian missiles in mexico and see how that goes.
And recognising that doesn't require any love for russia whatsoever, it's just being purely objective about the situation.
