Closed Foreign Aid - Charity Starts At Home

Closed on

CHARITY STARTS AT HOME!!!

Our NHS is suffering
Our Police Service is suffering
Our elderly are suffering
Our children are suffering
Our military is suffering
Some UK families are living in financial poverty, others in fuel poverty

Yet the UK gives an enormous amount in Foreign Aid - but is it not true that Charity starts at home.

And to top it, our government increase foreign aid, but make cuts to our services named above.

We need our country to be stable before we attempt to stabilise another.

Foreign aid needs to be reduced by a minimum of 50% and capped until UK growth and stability allow for a review!

Remember - Charity Starts at Home!!!
