RAF under fire for filtering out white male pilots in diversity push.
The Royal Air Force (RAF) in the United Kingdom is reportedly under pressure to filter out "useless white male pilots" in order to meet diversity targets, according to leaked emails obtained by Sky News. The emails also revealed that selection boards were cancelled if they did not include women or minorities. The RAF denies that its standards have been lowered to increase diversity and is paying over $123,000 to 31 white men who were disadvantaged by the new policy. The leaked emails were dated between 2020 and 2021.
