Rejected petition Cut foreign aid - use a smaller budget far more effectively and appropriately!

We should have a far smaller foreign aid budget whilst the country is in financial crisis. We cannot allow public services to crumble over foreign aid. We should retain a considerably smaller foreign aid budget to assist genuine issues upon merit, not non-essential matters!

More details

Just Google it!
We should not be spending, or allowing it to be spent on non-essential matters such as another countries' space programmes, or subsidising the interests of fishermen in the West indies!
