Staff at the British Royal Air Force were instructed to stop choosing “useless white male pilots” in the most recent attack on the nation’s indigenous population as part of an effort to diversify the armed forces.
As indicated by a report coming from London’s Daily Telegraph, Squadron Commander Andrew Harwin expressed frustration in an email to RAF officials on January 19, 2021, that their pilot training programs were “predominantly white male-heavy,” with insufficient applicants from Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnicity backgrounds.
The Squadron Leader allegedly wrote, “If we do not have sufficient BAME and female on board then we’ll have to come to a decision to postpone boarding and recruit more BAME as well as female from the RAF.”
“Let’s be as mindful as we can. I am more than glad to cut boarding if required to have an evenly distributed BAME/female/male board,” Harwin said. “I do not really need to watch tons of worthless white male pilots.”
“The email clearly illustrates an ingrained culture that was established by the highest levels of leadership to pursue ludicrous diversity statistics that were obviously unachievable,” a source inside the Royal Air Force told the broadsheet.
The RAF insider said, “This culture even extended to giving orders that were against the law.”
It is unlawful for anyone to discriminate in hiring on the basis of protected traits, such as gender, sexual orientation, religion, or race, according to the Equality Act of 2010.
Despite it appearing that gender and ethnicity have little bearing on defending the country from external threats, the Royal Air Force has pledged to increase the proportion of women and people from minority backgrounds in its ranks to 40% and 20%, respectively, by the end of the decade.
This hasn’t happened yet, since annoying white men continued to make up the vast majority of RAF pilots this past year, with only 30 out of 1,5000 pilots being women, as well as just 10 being members of ethnic minorities. Whenever the RAF engineering corps is included, white males continue to predominate, with fewer than 2% of engineers from underrepresented groups and 6% of women. Only 3% of the RAF as a whole has a background in a minority.
Given that males have historically outnumbered women in the military of every nation in history and that Britain continues to be a majority-white nation for the time being, this may not come as a surprise.
Former RAF Group Captain Lizzy Nicholl testified before the defence select committee that the force discriminated against 160 white males in order to meet its woke diversity goals.
At a time when many in the most senior ranks are becoming more concerned about Britain’s military preparedness for a future conflict, there is a strong push to diversify the skies.
