Restore foreign aid spending to 0.7% as pledged in the Labour manifesto

Petition Details

In 2015, on announcing the new aid strategy, the then Chancellor and Secretary of State for International Development said Britian “meets its responsibilities to the world’s poorest” and “in doing so best serves and protects its own security and interests”.

Additional Information

We think Labour is cowardly following the lead of the US by reducing foreign aid to 0.3%. It should be restored to 0.7% as promised.

This is a matter of life and death for people in developing countries and follows hot on the heels of the dismantling of US aid. People will die because of this callous cut that does the opposite of what was promised in Labour’s manifesto.
