Closed 2,123 signatures

What the petition asks

The budget for Foreign Aid spending has increased to £14bn.
We believe that it is wrong that our own Government spends our taxes abroad when our NHS is in crisis and police budgets are under pressure.
It is time to Stop the Foreign Aid Madness and spend OUR money at home on NHS and our police.
