Rejected petition STOP FORIEGN AID - LOOK AFTER THE BRITISH CITIZENS FIRST

More details

We the voters and taxpayers of Britain demand that this Government stops all foreign aid (in all its forms) whilst this country is unable to take care of its sick, elderly and vulnerable, whilst jobs are being cut and our own citizens are struggling to cope with the repercussions of the recession.
We demand that all our resources are used to put our ailing economy back on track instead of supporting countries who have wealth enough to start their own space programme, or train terrorists who target western democracy, or whose corrupt governments do not use the aid given to better their own country.
The British people are being bled dry by this Government and should not be forced to subsidise the rest of the world when our own way of life is falling apart.
