Pick of the Day 5

'Pick of the Day' 5

June 21st, 2020

 “For too long frankly UK overseas aid has been treated as some giant cashpoint in the sky that arrives without any reference to UK interest.”

Boris Johnson in statement to the Commons 16.06.2020


 

"Aid is not a cashpoint; it is a lifeline that provides medicines, food and shelter, vaccines, bed-nets and clean water for millions around the world. It funds the infrastructure that businesses need to grow and protects the poorest people from a climate crisis they did not cause."

Dhananjayan Sriskandarajah CEO of Oxfam GB 21.06.2020
