Justine Greening’s interesting new core messages
by Alex Evans | Oct 17, 2013
Justine Greening has done a big interview with the Daily Mail, which concludes as follows:
Greening, to her credit, does not seek to back away from what she believes in. That includes making the best of the Tory commitment to keep Britain in the forefront of foreign assistance.
The big difference is that she believes that the aid budget is not just about alleviating poverty, however, important that may [sic]. It is also about easing the passage for great British commercial firms in emerging markets and ensuring the resources are more carefully marshalled.
So that’s interesting.
