Rejected petition Divert the £12 billion a year Foreign Aid to building Britain's flood defences.

Britain's flood defences are clearly inadequate. This government is sending £12 billion of British taxpayers contributions abroad every year. This money could be better used at home until such times as our flood defences are fully secure.
