Additional Information

After President Biden announced the end of US support for Saudi Arabia's offensive in Yemen, the time has come for the Prime Minister to do the same.

Billions of pounds worth of UK weapons are currently being used to create the biggest humanitarian crisis in history. Yemeni citizens face starvation, famine, a lack of education and sanitary facilities.

More than 24 million people (80% of Yemen's population) require humanitarian assistance, according to UNICEF. The time to act is now.
