Voices: No wonder Anneliese Dodds has resigned over cutting aid to the world’s poorest people – it’s the only right thing to do

Anneliese Dodds’s resignation as minister for international development – over the prime minister’s bid to use the foreign aid budget to boost defence spending – comes as little surprise to me.

Labour’s disgraceful and cynical attempt to balance the books on the backs of the poorest people in the world has demeaned the party’s reputation. Shame on them – and kudos to a politician of decency and principle.
