I used to work in the international NGO sector & have seen the profound impact that the aid sector has on the world’s poorest and most marginalised. People who find themselves in a desperate position benefit from that help when it is most needed. These cuts will hit them hardest. It is worth noting that the UK has some fantastic international NGOs. The people who work there are as committed and brave as in any sector. Their work which can take years to build up will be hit.

I don’t have any special insights about what is going to happen in #SP21 results but just some observations by those who think @theSNP need 65 seats ‘to win’ Like it or not we live in a multi-party democracy. That means Governments can take far reaching decisions on a minority of seats & votes especially at Westminster
