Rejected petition Stop providing Financial Aid (The Tax Payers Money) to Foreign Nations Who Are Not Part Of The Commonwealth

More details

It is totally unjustifiable to send millions of £'s in aid to foreign nations when the Government is making defense cuts, health service cuts, education cuts and has created a package of austerity measures affecting every tax payer in the United Kingdom. We cannot afford to be sending millions of £'s abroad where it is proven the money lines the pockets of the corrupt organisations (Governments) and very little of the amount goes to the individuals of these nations. For decades this country has sent millions and millions in aid to poorer nations and the nations are no better off in fact many are worse off.
