✨ Did you know that thanks to a new drug called lenacapavir, ending AIDS in 5 years is a real possibility?✨ 🚨But recent funding cuts risk wasting this opportunity.🚨 Sign our pre-written letter and tell your MP to act now!📝 👉https://endingaids.eaction.org.uk/ukleadership #WorldAIDSDay2025

Activists mobilised outside of Parliament this week to fight the deadly cuts to UK aid. The government has other means to increase its revenues, such as closing tax loopholes and taxing the super rich, rather than stripping the UK's contribution to saving lives and building a safer world for all.

Starmer's decision to slash the aid budget is a death sentence. Estimates show more than 600,000 people will die from deadly diseases that could've otherwise been prevented by UK aid. It also robs the opportunity to tackle root causes of global insecurity & instability. Reverse the aid cuts now!
