David Cameron’s failure to act over Russia has turned him into a “foreign policy irrelevance”, the man who served as Britain’s top commander in Nato under the Prime Minister has said.
General Sir Richard Shirreff, who stepped down from the post last March, said Mr Cameron was acting like a ’bit player’ over the Ukrainian crisis.
He said the strength Britain could bring to the negotiating table with Vladimir Putin appears to be “absent” and warned such a position would only embolden Russia.

“Where is Britain?” said Sir Richard – until March the UK’s most senior officer at Nato – in an interview with The Times.
“Where is Cameron? He is clearly a bit player. Nobody is taking any notice of him ... He is now a foreign policy irrelevance.”
