Reduce the huge, unjusifiable amount of money spent on foreign aid.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Cameron committed the UK to spend .7% of national income on foreign aid whilst we have UK citizens made homeless and destitute through lack of financial help. We give aid to atomic powers and those with their own space programme. It's wrong, It's vanity. Help our own people first. Cut foreign aid.
