Rejected petition Cease all foreign aid until we have looked after our own.
The UK currently sends around £2B abroad in foreign aid. Our NHS and Social Care is neglected due to a shortage of money. One example is the £300M sent to Pakistan who have spent £19M on its space program whilst British ex-servicemen are sleeping rough and the NHS can not cope.
