Does Britain have a moral duty to help poorer nations?

Cuts to the UK's overseas aid budget are said to have led to thousands of women dying in pregnancy and childbirth in Africa. Does Britain have a moral duty to help poorer nations?

Sean Fletcher and Holly Hamilton present the show that puts the heart and soul into Sundays, bringing faith and ethics to the discussions that matter most. This week an internal assessment by Foreign Office civil servants was made public. The report stated that thousands of women in Africa will die in pregnancy and childbirth as a result of cuts to the UK's overseas aid budget. We ask; Does Britain have a moral duty to help poorer nations? Also, after reports that the government is set to tighten up sentencing guidelines for offences such as shoplifting, the show discusses whether sending petty criminals to prison is the right thing to do. And, Anita Rani tells us about 2023's South Asian Heritage Month.
