Today's allocations show the stark reality of the decision to slash the aid budget. We warned a year ago that it would lead to more poverty, less security, and diminish our standing in the world. This is the harsh reality. Read our chair’s statement @staff_heather

A year ago, the UK government announced plans to slash its aid budget. Debt relief and new legislation can counteract the devastating impact of these cuts. Read more in The Independent and hear from our Lead Economist, @MariaFFinnerty. ⤵️ independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

LCID exec member @MariaFFinnerty shares new analysis in the @Independent, looking at the role of debt relief in countering the tragic impacts of the aid cuts, announced a year ago today. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
Maria Finnerty@MariaFFinnerty

Exclusive on new analysis I did for @CAFOD in @Independent, finding that debt relief could help counteract the devastating impacts of @FCDOGovUK @10DowningStreet ODA cuts, announced one year ago today. Hundreds of millions of lives & livelihoods are on the line.

@jmahumadaf I would love to access this article - I'm working on building support for global financial system reform in the UK for an NGO, and our learning budget is currently minimal. Thank you

None of us benefit from living in a less safe, less stable world. Aid cuts will cost the Britain more in the longer term and worsen cost of living pressures for ordinary people in the UK. We turn our backs on global issues at our peril.

Pleasure to speak to @DuncanBarkes @TalkTV for @CAFOD last night on why abandoning our global obligations harms Britain’s interests, the importance of the work of @TaxJusticeUK and others on ending global tax dodging, and the role of the UK in fixing the global financial system

Ethiopia's bondholders are trying to get paid 50% more than government creditors. This would mean they'd make 100% profit after 'debt relief'. New research by us and Afrodad: debtjustice.org.uk/press-release/…
