Statement from the MOD.
The report found the Marham radar controller's workload at the time was "high" and "an opportunity to provide additional support" had been missed.
All F-35 operators have been mandated to read the Airprox report into the incident "as a case study to help improve awareness of the importance of lookout as much as the continued need to follow good airmanship practice", the report said.

If Amber Rudd had referred to Diane Abbot as a "woman of colour" rather than a "coloured woman" That would that be completely different but somehow also exactly the same?

"On the flip side, I have African sisters who don’t want to be labelled as ‘black woman’ or as a ‘woman of colour’ but simply a woman.

As a black woman, I hate the term 'people of colour'
Although the term feels politically correct, it’s inclusive and is better than the previously used ‘coloured’, I am still not here for itTo BAME or not to BAME: the problem with racial terminology in the civil service

Whilst I am trying to understand and make the right choices, I am being bombarded from all directions with outrage but seeing little in actions other than news articles stoking the flames in the press.
We're heading into a dystopian world such as that in movies where people rarely even talk to their immediate neighbours let alone people of other cultures.
One thing I miss out in civvy street is when walking around camp saying hello to all and sundry no matter what they looked like.
World is going mad.

I haven't myself but i have a BAME colleague who, when serving in the army, (relatively recently) experienced some very unpleasant remarks about which army he should be in... This is someone who had a C17 trip back to Birmingham on stretcher of which he has no memory & was lucky to arrive alive......
I can say with certainty it was the only time this has happened to me and only because of (I'm assuming here) a social misfit's misguided attempt to further an agenda dreamt up by the sort of cretins who inhabit Fourchan, Reddit or Tumblr.
cant use BAME anymore, its offensive.
Oh right, i will go and flagellate myself later & keep calling him my mate...... Meanwhile, while lefty liberals torture themselves (and the vast majority of the UK public) over appropriate terminology to use, organisations such as Faceache & titter (other social sh1te platforms exist) will make millions allowing people to publicly use far worse terms with far more spite & bile than most of us would ever dream of using...... And, oh the irony, the same lefty liberals will be using those self same platforms to stir up their own storms of outrage......
