Rejected petition Stop International Aid for Countries with a Space Program, Nuclear Weapons etc.

More details

We give aid to countries which effectively spend the money on things that the UK cannot afford, are in an economically better position than the UK, or who ideologically are against the UK. Giving aid to these countries is insane.

We should stop international Aid to countries who have a Space Program (such as India and Nigeria), have a nuclear weapons program, harbour terrorists or terrorist groups, or have a better balance of payments situation than the UK.

I beleive that this is in fact nearly all the countries we give aid to. If we are giving aid to these countries to stop them attacking us, siding against us internationally or to influence them politically then the government should call it what it is.... a bribe. Not Aid.
