Rejected petition SCRAP BRITAIN'S FOREIGN AID BUDGET

Rejected on 1 April 2020

Britain's welfare MUST be put before that of other countries and nations. We are experiencing a crisis at this time which must be addressed by the Government.

The government's only option is to financially fund citizens who are unable to go to their places of work, small businesses, pensioners and others who have special financial needs.Britain cannot continually be responsible for the welfare of other countries. For every hundred pounds that’s made in the UK, seventy pence goes towards foreign aid.
