A leaked conversation in which Australia takes aim at the UK has led to a rather awkward diplomatic spat that will take some explaining.

Mr Raab met with Australia’s Intelligence and Security Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee during a visit that was aimed at securing closer ties in the UK’s post-Brexit era.

ABC reports the UK High Commissioner has written to the heads of these committees angered that these criticisms were leaked. “If this is the attitude of the British, we may as well visit the Americans who we can trust more on this stuff,” an intelligence committee member told the ABC.Yesterday the PJCIS agreed to accept advice from Australia’s High Commissioner in the UK to defer a delegation to the UK to a later time, as he advised that counterpart committees in the UK have not yet reconstituted following the UK’s December election.
