Will you help make sure UK aid is spent on takling poverty and strengthening healthcare and education systems? #retweetifyes #ignoreifno #yourepresentus tag who is standing to be your MP

The Department for International Development (DFID) is the most transparent and effective department at delivering aid. Do you support a commitment to keep it an independent department? #retweetifyes #ignoreifno #yourepresentus tag who is standing to be your MP
Do you support the UK’s commitment to spend 0.7% of our national income on overseas aid? #retweetifyes #ignoreifno #yourepresentus tag who is standing to be your MP

A powerful reminder from Andrew Mitchell of the impact of #UKaid, and with a manifesto on its way it's really encouraging to hear @BorisJohnson say "this government will continue to lead the world in our overseas development budget".

Amazing to see the progress. Now let’s use our role in the UN Security Council and write a lasting resolution for the children and citizens of Yemen. #YemenCantWait #Powerofyourpen

Yesterday I attended @savechildrenuk #PowerofYourPen to see school children’s art from around the country and their hope for peace in Yemen. The UK must table a new resolution at the UN and suspend arms sales until there is peace #yemencantwait
