andybrexiteer And they say we are racist - were do the left believe the money comes from?
This country is the fu)king laughing stock of the world
Its not 'Foreign Aid' its Foreign Bribes from our government to shithouse countries cos we cant negotiate shit! Should cancel the lot and only give it for humanitarian disasters!
Yep we can really afford that.
We are being mugged by left wing, virtue signalling idiots who spend OUR money to inflate THEIR egos.
Given away by those that dont have to work for it, easy I guess for them, its time we got things re adjusted ya know.
andybrexiteer This is why we need to Leave the EU - “Trade not Aid” we should be setting up free trade agreements with Africa and slashing the aid budget to spend at home
This has to stop
End it.
The great swindle perpetrated upon the British people by the crooks in parliament
1/ Disgusting, now ask.. what country gains most financial support from us . Pakistan, now ask, what do Pakistan & Brunei have in common ? Now tell me who are the most bonkers nation in the world ? Yes, the UK is, so soft that we let the EU bully us, bastards like Soros cause..
Bloody madness
No wonder our country is so much in debt, sort this out and spend money on our own important issues. Get a PM who as the commitment to actually make decisions and prioritize our country, instead of the feeble Teresa May who is too scared to do or say anything in case it offends
Foreign aid needs to permanently stop.
A country run by the insane.
Time to scrap foreign aid
Why!?
Joke
This is disgraceful. It’s all going into some dictators pocket for his private jets, yachts, villas and apartments. Why can’t the government see this - oh wait a minute they can’t make any sensible decisions at the moment
We’re mugs
Why?
Has to stop. Food aid, medicine and shelter only . Nothing else.
That’s because we have serious homelessness, record usage of food banks, social services on its knees & a knife epidemic showing no sign of abating! Why wouldn’t we have a “moral duty” to other countries when our own communities are struggling & suffering? That was rhetorical.
Why we should be proud of our aid commitment UKaid AidWorks
Crazy just bloody crazy .... I want my tax money spent here in the UK. No one ever asked me to volunteer this ridiculous amount of money !!!
Absolutely outrageous
You can ratchet that up a bit more as most of our contribution to the EU is used for foreign aid to EU countries!
Unacceptable Conservatives
😡😡
Because for some reason we give money to countries like India so they can plow money into nuclear missiles and a space program!
Who paid the other £7?
you mean under a conservative Government
