As many as four million men from Afghanistan could travel to Britain and other European nations along migrant routes if the West abandons the war-ravaged country, the Defence Secretary has warned. Sir Michael Fallon admitted the UK and Nato cannot pull troops out of Afghanistan because the terrorist groups that existed there when soldiers deployed in 2001 remain and "still pose a threat." As the Ministry of Defence considers sending more troops to the country, Sir Michael warned that if Afghanistan collapses, Europe "will feel the consequences, very directly."

Perhaps the Brits should hire in some consultants from Japan.
