Rejected petition Foreign Aid

More details

We would like to see Monetary Aid to Foreign Countries reduced. Countries such as Somaliland have shown that Aid is not required to build a better State. Giving huge amounts of money makes countries dependent on this Foreign Aid, which is often is siphoned off into the pockets of the Countries Leaders. We in the UK need to look after our own first before we can look after others.
