Live online: Michael Moore, Liberal Democrat spokesman on international development

International development faces serious challenges, whoever wins the next election. With domestic spending cuts a real possibility, protest at continued historically high spending on aid is inevitable. It is likely the aid budget will face a very tough fight. Last year, the Liberal Democrats set out their thoughts on international development in a policy paper, which outlined support for the aid target of 0.7% of GDP, a call for renewed efforts to reach the Millennium Development Goals and an acknowledgement that aid sometimes fails and that perhaps financial aid is not the most effective way of delivering support. At 11am (GMT) on Tuesday, 16 March , the Lib Dems' spokesman on international development, Michael Moore , will be live online for one hour to answer your questions about the party's policies and the wider issues of aid and development. Read the party's policy paper and Anne Perkins' report on the Lib Dems' policies and then post a question. You can post a question now or come back on Tuesday.
