MINISTERS have been warned that cutting the UK’s aid budget would be “unlawful” according to a former Solicitor General. Lord Edward Garnier warned Parliament must change the law before it can cut …

What did the PM say in his speech today, Wednesday, January 27?1,725 more killed by Covid in UK's second-deadliest day as cases rise by 25,308ASS TESTINGAsked if he was advocating cancelling debt, Mr Raab told the International Development Committee: "I think that's got to be part of the conversation about recovering and building back better, stronger, because for some of those countries they don't have a chance without that.

"I'm a big fan of trading your way to middle income status and the rest of it but without a bedrock level of economic capacity, which you won't if you're in a debt trap. I think it's very, very difficult." On November 13, the G20 group of the world's biggest economies announced that low-income countries hardest hit by the pandemic could get an extension on debt payments beyond mid-2021, and in the most severe cases a debt write-off.

Thoes saying its 'unlawful' are obviously on the make from it... 🤔

Change the law then.

Why?

What about cutting aid to the Snp would not be unlawful it would be great as they abuse the money 💴 on 💩 😷

Seriously?

No it won’t. Its common sense and just means that our money will be spent on the UK (which it needs) rather than abroad. This should have always been the case 🤷‍♂️

Time to change the law then.
