'Marcus Rashford is barely 21, and has shamed a forty plus PM who benefitted from the best education this country can provide. Is the message clear yet?'

Rashford is 23, Johnson 56
The only reason Rashford has succeeded is because of the media. Media backs fringe causes, government and business poo themselves over the adverse publicity and cave in.
RAF recruitment , the problem is of the governments own making. 'Options for Change' / Peace Dividend etc...has run down our armed forces for the last 30 years.
Think of all the trainee pilots let go not too long ago.
Would anyone join a company, knowing that company is on a downward spiral and the rot hasn't stopped?
Saying ethnic recruitment is not happening in the RAF, is really not the issue. The issue is recruitment full stop and the problem runs much deeper
