Ex-diplomat Darroch astounded by UK plan to break Brexit law Kim Darroch was British ambassador to the United States until leaked comments about Donald Trump ended his 40-year diplomatic career last yearLONDON -- Kim Darroch is astonished. But he says he’s never before seen a British government saying it plans to break international law. Darroch became envoy to Washington in 2016 and had a ringside seat for the first chaotic years of the Trump administration. Unlike Trump, Johnson is generally supportive of immigration, extols free trade and accepts the need for strong action on climate change. I do wonder about whether for a Biden administration a free trade deal with the U.K. would be the absolute top priority,” he said.
