Petition Stop |Aid Tp Afghanistan

The International Crisis Group warned that up to 10 per cent of overseas aid was being paid in bribes and protection money to the Taliban and officials in Kabul.

This money is being spent on the Taliban against our troops, they stand no chance of winning the war.

Over the next four years, the Prime Minister has pledged to give £710million to Afghanistan alone. That could mean up to £70million of British money going to the very people we are fighting.

Despite billions being poured into Afghanistan in aid, the country shows no signs of becoming politically stable or economically viable.

Should we be wasting money that could be spent on strengthening the police, border patrols, immigration, hospital staff, and other essential services?

Say no to more overseas aid.
