The FCDO Minister has no idea “what are his own advertisements of billionaires
Jenny Chapman, replacement of DODDs as Minister of Development, faced parliamentarians this week in the International Development Committee. Apart from saying that the United Kingdom was not a “Global beneficial organization“More international was enraged against the expense of FCDO and its communication:
“It’s not just a minister’s work is Everyone’s work… We are still publishing press releases that are directed by X million pounds for project X. The public has no idea I have no idea – If that pound sign is next to something that is a large number a small number, more than the last time than last time, I don’t know what that project is. We are talking to Perurselves too or when we must talk about people and stories … We have to do it when we say the case, it’s about itself, identify where the need is. “
A position of principles on expenses there while the FCDO prepares to reduce its official development assistance budget from 0.5% to 0.3%. However, the spokes realize what she has to do bone in recent months?
- In March, FCDO issued a press release with Chapman announcing £ 10 million to support Myanmar. He had an appointment of her promising the reader that: “This £ 10 million package will be reinforced [Myanmar’s] Efforts.“
- In January, Chapman welcomed funds of £ 60 million for creative industries by saying: “The soft power of the United Kingdom is one of our greatest national assets. It is a celebration of the best of the British and a key driver or a growth of the United Kingdom. Working with the great campaign, this Council will celebrate and maximize our best assets to support the growth of the United Kingdom economy and the range of our international priorities.“
- In December, he praised a commitment of £ 25 million with the developing countries that the Government made in COP29, together with £ 45 million for the global fund of the Biodiversity Framework and the Government’s Deforestation Commitment of £ 239 million.
- In November, he announced £ 5 million to address children’s marriage worldwide.
- In October 2024, Chapman praised a violence prevention program of the United Kingdom of £ 15 million.
A case of pots and boils here as Chapman admits that it is registered at hungry for millions of taxpayers funds without any idea what the expense projects are. And attacks public officials for their own ads …
