deliberate leak due to coming exposure of UK interference in the 2016 election.
1 Jul: UK Times: Whitehall chief lined up as US envoy
The cabinet secretary who conducted the Huawei leak inquiry is being lined up for a top overseas posting if Boris Johnson becomes prime minister.
Sir Mark Sedwill is said to be considering a role as British ambassador in Washington, with Gavin Williamson likely to return to the cabinet...
Ministers are said to be tipping Sir Mark to replace Sir Kim Darroch, who has been in post since January 2016 and is due for a move...

long-time spook:
Wikipedia: Kim Darroch: Assumed office: 28 January 2016 - President Barack Obama
Darroch joined the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in 1976...
In November 2016, following the US election, a memo by Darroch to Prime Minister Theresa May was leaked in which he said the President-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, could be influenced by the British government. The following week, Trump tweeted that Nigel Farage should serve as British ambassador to the United States, which was rejected by Downing Street, which said that there is no vacancy and that the UK has “an excellent ambassador to the US”. Darroch was in London the next day for consultations with May that were said to have been long planned.
SIR Kim Darroch is an idiot. What does he want, Trump to bow to him? Melania to curtsy?
The UK should fire whoever leaked the cables.
Almost certainly leaked by someone on his staff with his approval. He’s trying to drive a wedge between the Trump admin and the UK.

6 Jul: BBC: Former MI6 head: UK in ‘political nervous breakdown’
The UK is going through a “political nervous breakdown”, a former intelligence chief has told the BBC.
Sir John Sawers said the UK could have a prime minister who does “not have the standing that we have become used to in our top leadership” - a criticism of the two Tory leadership contenders...
Boris Johnson ally Iain Duncan Smith countered Sir John’s remarks, saying “democracy may well frighten him”...
Sir John’s comments come after reports Downing Street tried to withhold sensitive intelligence from Boris Johnson when he was foreign secretary.
It is understood there were concerns about Mr Johnson’s ability to keep information confidential...

Who the hell is leaking this crap
No he should not be recalled by the UK, Trump should kick his ass out of the US and permanently ban him.

Nah... let the idiotic “assessments” of this pompous “man” be public so, in the future, all will know of his humiliating lack of discernment.
It’s more propaganda. “Leaked”. Sure.
What does that have to do with US/UK relations?
Could you stay on topic, please?
Oh, right.
But it is a (hugely) important issue.
Big week for our trade negotiators, this week.
But sorry, you are maybe right. :)
this guy has form. here, Murdoch’s Sky reporting on leak to Murdoch’s Times’ newspaper of 9 Nov 2016 Darroch memo:
28 Dec 2016: Sky News: UK ambassador Sir Kim Darroch in charm offensive towards Donald Trump
Sir Kim Darroch praises Trump’s “historic and impressive win” weeks after dismissing him as “an outsider and an unknown quantity”.
By Jon Craig
The ambassador’s original comment, in a leaked memo to the Prime Minister written on the day after the US election, prompted Mr Trump to champion Mr Farage to replace Sir Kim...
And he (Farage) called for Sir Kim to resign as ambassador because he is a “fanatical Europhile and part of the old regime” whose views would be “diametrically opposed to Trump’s”...
In his 9 November memo, leaked to The Sunday Times, Sir Kim told Mrs May that “Trump did the apparently impossible” in winning the White House.
And he said: “It bears repeating that this soon to be President-elect is above all an outsider and an unknown quantity, whose campaign pronouncements may reveal his instincts, but will surely evolve and, particularly, be open to outside influence if pitched right.”...

UK is part of the “resistance”. In a different era we would have gone to war over what they have done. World wars were started over simple letters.
Probably in the pedo lineup...
More swamp to clean.

Who cares what diplomats from moslem nations do or say?
