"Hard on the heels of Donald Trump’s dismantling of USAID, the United Kingdom
has ripped more than A$12 billion (£6 billion) from its foreign assistance
budget.

The double hit from two of the globe’s biggest contributors to international
development has been branded a betrayal of poorer countries that will cost
lives.

What does this mean for Australia as we head towards the federal election?"
