Rejected petition Take steps to ensure that the costs of our politicians' jolly into Mali is borne by the existing foreign aid budget.

More details

It CANNOT be right that the people of this country are forced to fund the purchase of more bombs and bullets to allow one foreign country to kill citizens of another foreign country without having some form of control over what our bellicose political elite do. We already spend FAR TOO MUCH money funding the killing of innocent civilians in foreign lands. WE DO NOT WANT TO BECOME KNOWN AS THE EASY TOUCH COUNTRY FOR FUNDING MURDEROUS POLITICAL ACTIVISTS OF THE PLANET, NOR DO WE WANT SPEND ANY MORE MONEY ON IT.
