Rejected petition Cessation of all foreign aid payments, funds diverted to UK nationals in need

It is absolutely ridiculous that we expend vast sums of money on foreign aid while we have so many needy amongst our own nationals.
So much of the money is siphoned off and many of these nations have better finances than we do. Children, the NHS, pensioners & so many more.
