'Air Chief Marshal Sir Mike Wigston, appearing before a committee of MPs on Wednesday for the first time since the scandal broke last year, said it had been wrong for "stretching aspirational" goals - that he set to improve diversity in the RAF - to end up as "unattainable" recruitment targets for his recruitment teams.

"That put intolerable stress on them and that was a failing of the organisation - where an aspirational goal becomes an individual's target," he said.'
