Former UK Prime Minister David Cameron has completed a 1,000 mile journey to Poland to deliver supplies to Ukrainian refugees. He was able to achieve his aim despite suffering a flat tyre along the way and renting a lorry “that didn’t have a spare”.

The former Conservative prime minister had on Friday posted a picture of himself at the wheel of the vehicle on Twitter, saying : “It is going to be a long drive, but I’ll keep you updated along the way #StandWithUkraine.”

While announcing the trip, Cameron said donations had been taken in for refugees from Ukraine and they now had enough “to fill a small lorry with everything from nappies to sanitary products, warm clothes to first aid kits”.

For the trip, Cameron said he would be travelling with two colleagues from the Chippy Larder, a food project in west Oxfordshire with which he is believed to have volunteered for two years.

Speaking to Channel 4 this week, Mr Cameron called for more humanitarian help to be given back to Ukraine.

“Let’s do more on humanitarian aid”,

“We achieved 0.7% of GDP in our aid payments. I’m sad we’ve got away from that. I hope we can get back there.

“Let’s – with the EU – lead the donor conference, lead the aid effort. Let’s have a dedicated aid minister in the Cabinet doing development.

“The Foreign Office ministers do a great job but it’d be good to have someone who’s 100% dedicated to humanitarian aid and development.”
