Reduce overseas aid spending to £1 billion

Petition Details

The Government currently spends nearly over £13 billion per year on overseas aid.

We believe this is madness and that it is time to focus our priorities at home. We call on the Government to reduce the overseas aid budget to £1 billion and spend our money at home.
