Starmer condemns Johnson and Raab for going on holiday amid Afghanistan crisis
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has accused Boris Johnson of “appalling” judgement and called on the prime minister to “snap out of his complacency” to deal with the crisis.
He said Mr Johnson’s initial response to the Taliban “arriving at the gate of Kabul was to go on holiday”.
Referring to foreign secretary Dominic Raab’s recent trip to Cyprus, cut short on Sunday, the Labour leader said: “The foreign secretary shakes his head, I wouldn’t have stayed on holiday”.
Sir Keir added: “You cannot coordinate an international response from the beach” – accusing both Mr Raab and Mr Johnson of a “dereliction of duty”.
