MP claims that Tories are serious about 'rooting out WOKE NONSENSE' in the army

Conservative MP Esther McVey has claimed that the Tories will rid the army of "woke nonsense."

It comes after Defence Secretary Grant Shapps said that a "woke culture has infiltrated" the armed forces.

Speaking to GB News Mcvey said: "Immediately we've got to stop this craziness.

"We want the best people for a job and not some fixed quota. I think that is what is essential."
