Hello, youre watching the context on bbc news. Its been revealed that Keir Starmer s top adviser, Sue Gray, now earns more than the Prime Minister. Weve been told that shes now on a salary of £170,000. More than 100 charities and Aid Agencies have urged sir Keir Starmer to protect foreign Aid Spending amid fears the budget could fall to its lowest level since 2007. The unease comes ahead of the Budget Set to be unveiled by the chancellor in october and with increasing aid being spent here in the uk, To Support Refugees and Asylum Seekers.
