Petition Give the British public a referendum on cutting foreign aid. Give it to the NHS
An overwhelming 78 per cent of voters want cuts to Britain’s wasteful £12.4 billion annual aid budget, and the money diverted to the Health Service instead.
If a tenth of the aid budget was diverted to the NHS, the £1.24 billion would pay for around three million stays in a hospital bed.
