Mass murder

The UK has cut its aid to the UN's family planning system by 85%, reducing its contribution from £154m to £23m, and going back on a promise it had previously made. The UK was previously the largest national donor to the UNFPA.

These cuts will be devastating for women and girls and their families across the world. With the now-withdrawn 130 million GBP (180 million USD), the UNFPA Supplies Partnership would have helped prevent around 250,000 maternal and child deaths, 14.6 million unintended pregnancies and 4.3 million unsafe abortions.

Statement by UNFPA Executive Director Dr. Natalia Kanem

So a targetted strike on poor, mostly brown, women and their children which will kill a quarter of a million of them.

Well done, Boris.
