The Foreign Office of David Lammy has ben accused of being complicit in war crimes by a key diplomat as he quits the job! Right, so a major development has happened at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, the FCDO as it is called these days, since the International Development department was done away with, as one of their top diplomats has just quit, but not just quit, they’ve quit with an excoriating resignation letter, which is literally titled ‘FCDO Complicity in War Crimes.’ The Foreign Office is according to this diplomat complicit in war crimes and as a result of that, no longer wants anything to do with them. Now for as much as it can be cited that Labour haver only been in power for six weeks, that surely so much of this cannot be attributed to them, the trigger for this resignation boils down to arms sales, arms sales which Labour said they were going to stop and yet have instead continued. Therefore in this instance, despite them only being in power for six weeks, it has literally only taken them this long to trigger this resignation and just to underline Labour’s fault in all of this, that this is on David Lammy, it’s his department as much as it should be on our control freak of a Prime Minister Keir Starmer, if you’re wondering why you’ve heard nothing about this story, it’s probably in no small part because the mainstream media have completely ignored it. Right, so this is devastatingly bad news for Labour, for Keir Starmer and David Lammy, as a senior British diplomat, a guy called Mark Smith, has resigned over Labour’s failure to ban arms sales to Israel and if you haven’t heard of this guy, haven’t heard of this story, going around social media is actually the only place you could find it, and of course if it doesn’t pop up in your feed somewhere, its not something you’ll know about to search for, at least not before someone like me points it out, but if you were to google this story right now, the top 3 news stories to come up about it relate to articles published by Action Against Armed Violence, The Scottish Herald and Skwawkbox. No national mainstream media have touched this story with a bargepole and it’s now been at time of writing 15 hours since this news broke. You’d figure at least one big title would have mentioned this? At any rate, Mark Smith is a man of significant experience in Foreign Affairs. He’d worked at the Department of International Development since the time of the last Labour government, back in 2006 as an advisor to the Africa Regional Department, he then moved to Mozambique, Nepal, before finally ending up as the head of Africa Programmes and Expertise Department back in London, a post he took up just last February. He’s been a key diplomat for getting on for 20 years and it’s taken just 6 weeks of a Labour government again, of David Lammy being in charge of the department, for him to resign. And his letter truly damns them and the department... ***Subscribe to the channel here*** ►ABOUT ME: Hi, I'm Damien Willey.
