‘The woke Foreign Office doesn’t stand for Britain’ | Ameer Kotecha

‘The woke Foreign Office doesn’t stand for Britain’ | Ameer Kotecha

On the day Kabul fell to the Taliban, UK Foreign Office diplomats were invited to take part in a panel discussion on World Afro Day. As the Iran War broke out, and a British air base in Cyprus came under attack from Hezbollah, the civil-service intranet was urging mandarins to ‘take charge of their development’. Such woke excesses and HR distractions are merely the tip of the iceberg, according to former diplomat Ameer Kotecha. Here, he explains why he quit the Foreign Office, how it fails to put Britain’s national interest first, and how foreign policy is being swayed by sectarian voting blocs.
