Doctors Without Borders is deeply disappointed to see #Canada’s cuts to aid reflected in its reduced pledge to the #GlobalFund.
Such cuts will fuel the reversal of progress in the fight against HIV, TB and malaria.

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Lobbyists attended 48% more meetings than Tories, as Labour accused of giving them ‘backstage pass’

UK politics live – latest updates
Government ministers met representatives from the fossil fuel industry more than 500 times during their first year in power – equivalent to twice every working day, according to new research.
The analysis found that fossil fuel lobbyists were present at 48% more ministerial meetings during Labour’s first year in power than under the Conservatives in 2023.
Ministers at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) met fossil fuel lobbyists 274 times, with industry figures present at almost a quarter of meetings.
Ed Miliband, the secretary for energy and climate change, met fossil fuel lobbyists 250 times – with a third of all his meetings attended by industry figures.
During the same period DESNZ ministers met trade union representatives 61 times
Three fossil fuel companies: BP, Shell and Equinor , met ministers 100 times between them.
Fossil fuel lobbyists attended almost every government meeting about the energy profits levy, a temporary windfall tax on the “extraordinary profits” of North Sea oil and gas companies. Continue reading...
