There is famine in Sudan, where food is being used as a weapon of war - an utterly desperate emergency highlighted by @AnnelieseDodds.
Blocking food aid is against International Humanitarian Law.
The UK must lead the way in upholding the law & advocate strongly for compliance.

Thank you @EdwardMorelloWD, for leading this debate on Planned Reductions in Official Development Assistance in International Development.
The timing of cuts is terrible. They come as global need is rising, and many millions of children are suffering unimaginably from hunger.

In 2023, low- and middle-income countries spent over US$400 billion on debt repayments - more than on health and education.
This fuels hunger and malnutrition.

Thank you to all the nutrition champions at the party conferences.
Malnutrition is preventable & treatable. Yet it kills more than 2 million under 5s a year.
We need political commitment to stop this tragedy.
