Taliban commanders say it is 'safe' now in the Afghan capital as they invite British diplomats to return 'today, tomorrow, whenever', adding: 'We will be happy to have them here.'

In the end, just sitting it out and waiting worked. The empty British embassy seems a metaphor for the failed mission. "They must have had a lot of money to drink this much…they used to eat good food, get drunk, and then have sex with each other." The commander lambasts the international community for having left the country."Where is your help and support?" he asks us.
