Sir John Major’s Comments on Foreign Aid – 25 November 2020

November 26, 2020February 11, 2021 admin Foreign Aid

The comments made by Sir John Major on 25 November 2020.


Cutting our overseas aid is morally wrong and politically unwise. It breaks our word, and damages our soft power.  Above all, it will hurt many of the poorest people in the world.

I cannot and do not support it.
