[David Miliband @DMiliband]

We’re living in a world with weaker rules, weaker institutions and weaker forms of cooperation. The war in Iran exemplifies and exacerbates this global disorder that already existed on the day before the war started.

Thank you @yvettecoopermp for joining a virtual visit to IRC programmes in Tawila, Darfur and speaking to clients and colleagues about the needs on the ground.

We appreciate @fcdogovuk's commitment to addressing the crisis in Sudan, and look forward to working with you.

In the coming days, thousands of Gaza’s children will either be rescued — or allowed to die. That is the choice before us.

The fact that it is even being debated shows how far the international system has fallen. There are no two sides to this argument

It would be ethnic cleansing and must be stopped.

[Denisa Delić @denisadelic]

💡innovation - in area where the UK has strength, like reform in global institutions like UN & World Bank.
🤝 work with allies, notably in Europe, to pool resources and make aid money to future.

The world has changed, how does #aid need to change? @DMiliband outlines the challenges and solutions ahead. “The primary danger of the cuts is that they cost lives. But there is another danger: that they reinforce salami slicing and conservatism elsewhere within the aid system”

[Denisa Delić @denisadelic]

In the UK, cut to aid has been made, this is how we mitigate it:
💰reduce refugee & asylum costs and spend more global aid efforts.
📝 prioritise - by country or programme. Let’s make case in improved progs that build public support.

This is so powerfully written, and devastatingly tragic. Every word makes you lose faith in humanity. Thank you for sharing their stories @AhmedMoor & @NoaYachot

[Ahmed Moor @AhmedMoor]

I worked with @NoaYachot to tell the stories of children from Gaza who have suffered extraordinary loss. https://t.co/MyI54ksAzV

[Denisa Delić @denisadelic]

Thank you @SadiqKhan - and really glad you didn’t let the Ruislip & Uxbridge byelection throw you off.

“#Ulez had a positive impact and London’s air quality had improved across the board and at a faster rate than that of the rest of the country.”

@RESCUE_UK ‘s statement responding to cuts to the #aid budget today. The decision to cut the budget is a blow to 🇬🇧’s proud reputation as a global hum & dev leader. And with 300 million people in humanitarian need globally, this decision is devastating. https://t.co/Iz9WPTeFSf

[Denisa Delić @denisadelic]

Good to read this piece by two of my former bosses @laurakyrkesmith @melanie_ward following their trip to #MSC2025 - calling for increased defence spending, whilst also protecting aid spending. Both play an important role in ensuring global stability.
