Rejected petition Reverse international development and aid cuts
Reverse cuts to international development and aid, thus ensuring that the labour meet their manifesto promises and that the UK continues playing a vital role in global development.
Please look into finding other ways to fund the military spending increase, instead of cutting international aid.
More details
The UK has a proud and strong history of supporting international development and playing a vital role in the sector supporting global stability, poverty reduction and healthcare in less developed countries. By cutting aid, not only does labour fail to commit to their manifesto promises, but they also lose tremendous soft power and geopolitical clout.
