Reacting to the Prime Minister’s statement following the emergency G7 summit today, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said: “Boris Johnson has come out from this summit with nothing. Britain should stand tall in the world, but this Prime Minister falls short at every turn.

“He has failed on the global stage once more, and the consequences could not be more devastating.
“We abandoned all those who needed us in their hour of need; those who have put themselves in danger to protect British troops, vulnerable women and girls, and all those who simply fought to make their country a better place to live.
“There have been calls for a safe passage to be prioritised since the outset of this crisis, but the government was caught on the hoof, and left scrambling with the clock ticking.”
