PM urged to reverse 'cruel' international aid policy

The SNP Westminster leader has raised criticism of Boris Johnson voiced by his predecessor Theresa May in a national newspaper.

Ian Blackford called on the prime minister to reverse his 鈥渃ruel policy鈥 of cutting international aid for the 鈥渨orld鈥檚 poorest鈥.

Boris Johnson did not directly answer the question, but said the UK must have the "best possible" relationship with the US and that Britain was 鈥渆mbarking on a quite phenomenal year鈥 in relation to climate change, Nato and trade policies.

The Speaker pulled up the PM for again mispronouncing the SNP鈥檚 full title.
