Rejected petition Stop all foreign aid whilst there are around 80000 homeless children in the UK

More details

A recent report stated there would be 80000 homeless children in the UK during Christmas 2013. I find it completely unacceptable that we send even £1 out of this country whilst our own children are left to freeze without a home and probably little food. You wouldn't ensure other people had a home while your own children live on the street so why do it on a national level, charity begins at home.
