Rejected petition Foreign Aid Budget and Asylum Seekers

With the increasing number of asylum seekers, UK tax payers should not pay for both the foreign aid budget and support for asylum seekers. The foreign aid budget should be cut by the costs incurred by asylum seekers. This saving could be used to help vulnerable UK pensioners and deprived children.
