In an emotional speech, Conservative MP Tom Tugenhadt tells of the anger, grief and rage felt by veterans on the “abandonment” of Afghanistan.

The overseas affairs committee chairman, who served in Afghanistan, mentioned President Biden’s feedback in regards to the Afghan army had been “shameful”.

And he revealed that the well being secretary had made a promise to him to “to do extra for veterans’ psychological well being”.

MPs listened in silence to his speech, which was greeted with cheering and applause, which isn’t usually allowed within the Commons chamber.
