Closed Halve the International aid budget NOW!!

Closed on

In times of economic uncertainty it is only sensible to reduce the amount of tax payers money being sent overseas and to many countries that should not be getting it in the first place.
Reduce the aid budget by half now and a review must take place ASAP on where the money goes and why.
At present the governments view on international aid and developement is a million miles away from those of the people that voted them in to office!!!
