Dunkirk was a rout of British soldiers by Germans. The British Expeditionary Force was retreating back to the coast. The defining of it as a 'failure' might be partially mitigated by the heroic efforts of many (including French yacht owners) to save hundreds of thousands of soldiers - including about 100,000 French!
But it was clearly not a "victory" for the allies in any meaningful sense.
