Closed Decrease the Foreign Aid budget once we have left the EU.

Closed on

The Government should reduce the Foreign Aid Budget by 50% once we leave the EU and to spend that money on investment in the UK and to compensate for possible future hardships with Brexit.

The UK has always given large amounts in foreign aid. More tests need to be in place to qualify for Foreign Aid and the money saved should be used to invest in the UK. With the uncertainty of Brexit, the government should reduce Foreign Aid by 50% for a minimum of 5 years and spend the difference here in the UK for the UK.
