Liz Truss has been slapped down by the Chief of the Defence Staff after she expressed support for British volunteers heading to fight for Ukraine.
Admiral Sir Tony Radakin urged Britons not to head to Ukraine to fight against Russia, in a clear rebuke to the Tory Foreign Secretary.
It means her comments have now been disowned by Downing Street, fellow ministers, the chairman of the Defence Committee, and the Prime Minister’s most senior senior military advisor.
