Great to hear @andrewmitchMP committing to improving the ranking of @FCDOgovUK in the next Aid Transparency Index. We look forward to collaborating with the UK government to help improve its transparency.

Be assured @CommonsIDC are keeping a very close eye!
Seems likely that large scale use of the British aid budget within UK will violate @OECDdev rules. These are described here oecd.org/dac/financing-susta…. Rules are also set for allowable in-donor refugee costs oecd.org/dac/financing-susta…. Needs checking @AndrewmitchMP @PreetKGillMP.

..@pritipatel if you spent as much time running the pasprt renewal process as you did on ridiculous PR deportation stunts and the colour of documents maybe your systems wouldn’t be so spectacularly incompetent.

Brilliant and still relevant. Conservatives want to move away from Public services only @uklabour will invest in them, improve them and make them fit for all! Labour under @Keir_Starmer are ready for government. teapawt.net/TBetter97/status/15491…
..@pritipatel would you get down 2 the office & answer some phones, 3 weeks waiting for a call back and no passport renewal news #trainwreck application process

Can’t wait. Sign up now, and also there are a few “in person” places left if you’re in Brussels.
