PM is 'incapable of international leadership' as hundreds of Afghans left behindBoris Johnson was branded “incapable of international leadership” as he admitted to MPs hundreds of Afghans who were eligible to seek refuge in the UK had been left behind.

Sir Keir told the Commons, “we have a prime minister incapable of international leadership, just when we need it most.”“History will tell the tale of Operation Pitting as one of immense bravery.
