Nick Clegg says international aid must be defended

Nick Clegg says international aid must be defended: Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg yesterday gave a speech warning the UK’s commitment to international aid must be defended with "renewed energy and vigour against the forces of insularity and xenophobia which are now on the march”.

His speech comes just days after Ukip, a party which is firmly opposed to international aid, made political strides in the European elections, becoming the UK’s largest representative in the European parliament.
