Tigray deserves the £100m of much needed humanitarian aid UK is providing.

But Gaza deserves ongoing support too.

And if £100m can be found down the Treasury sofa for Tigray, why can’t it be found for malnourished kids in UK?

These are political choices, not moral ones. While the moral compass wildly swings, kids starve.

Selective humanity is almost worse than no humanity at all.

‘It has become the last line of defence. It’s the effective safety net. I never thought we would go back to this.

“Families with children are sleeping on the floor under one sheet. Four children are taking it in turns one night in four to sleep on a settee. People are giving up heating their homes. There is demand for duvets, sheets, blankets, sleeping bags and hot-water bottles.”’
