The Commons has returned to the Palarse today to debate the Taliban and the hasty and unseemly exit from Afghanistan.
Much hot air will be expended today on the motion:
“That this House has considered the situation in Afghanistan."
Which will mean fuck all to the people trapped inside Afghanistan wanting to escape the Taliban.
The bottom line is that without American support (political and military) the UK has no power to influence anything in Afghanistan.
On the subject of hot air, Biden finally broke his isolation from world leaders by calling Boris yesterday from his holiday home at Camp David.
Seemingly Boris managed to rebuke him, as diplomatically as one can do with a president:
“The Prime Minister stressed the importance of not losing the gains made in Afghanistan over the last twenty years, of protecting ourselves against any emerging threat from terrorism and of continuing to support the people of Afghanistan.”
