GOOD!


That article doesn't actually say the budget is going to be cut. Indeed
it says that the target figure of 0.7% of GDP being spent on foreign aid
will remain. What the article does say is that the aid will be spent on
projects that are more focused on our national security and to our
benefit, which is a return to the the priorities that used to apply to it.

As somebody here pointed out befo Harry doesn't actually read the
articles he posts links to, or possibly doesn't understand them.
