Excited to enjoy his fourteenth cup of tea that day, British Ambassador Nigel Ingraham poured first. As he took his first sip, it was clear however, that this was not the taste of home he expected. He then literally spit it out all over the Taliban side of the table.
“It was bollocks, absolutely,” Ingraham said after the meeting. “We [Great Britain] went to war over tea before, and we’ll do it again. Someone really needs to stop this horrible stuff from being brewed.”
