Anneliese Dodds, the Labour MP for Oxford East, resigned from her role as Minister for International Development over the government's decision to reduce overseas aid to 0.3% of GNI. She expressed her disagreement in her resignation letter, highlighting the importance of international development aid even amidst a push for increased defense spending. Her departure underscores the contentious nature of government fiscal policies concerning aid versus military funding. Additionally, The Independent continues to stress the importance of accessible journalism during critical political times, aiming to provide unbiased reporting across the political spectrum without paywalls.
It is with sadness that I write to inform you that I will cease attending your Cabinet... I disagree with the ODA decision, I continue to support the Government.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of reporting and analysis.
