Significantly reduce UK's foreign aid budget.
Adding to the UK’s debt burden by borrowing more money to give away in foreign aid at a time when our own public services are crumbling and under severe financial pressure is absurd.
Many reports have shown that UK aid is often misappropriated, misused and inappropriately allocated. There is no question that foreign aid is needed but it should be targeted at those most in need. Taxpayers are owed a duty of care in how their money is spent and aid should be critically monitored for efficacy.
