Aid that we in the UK give each year

This is a list of countries we give aid to.

How much of our tax payers money gets wasted by these countries?

AID

The plan with giving all these countries our taxes was always said that it improves their country and stops them wanting to emigrate to the UK. Well that idea didn’t work did it. It only makes the rulers of those countries rich.

Personally I think all Foreign Aid should be stopped, the money should be used to fix the problems in our own country there are so many.

Why on earth do we give so much to Pakistan, they are a nuclear power they obviously have money, why are we giving to Afghanistan for heavens sake, so many rich countries still receiving hand outs whilst we continue to receive their asylum seekers, makes me very angry.

Two Thousand Two Hundred and Sixty Four Million One Hundred Thousand Pounds, at the time these figures were published. (£2,264,100,000.00)
Just from the UK Government, and no doubt, some of these Regimes are double dipping by receiving grants from other Countries which assist in filling the pockets of their corrupt Politicians.
I'm sure a couple of Hospitals or accommodation for Ex-Servicemen and Women could be built using this money......Unfortunately this waste occurs in Australia on a similar scale, it is supposed to be because we are ""Good neighbours to our less fortunate bretheren""

Any country that spends money on weapons of war, or rockets for going into space, DEFINITELY doesnt need charity money from us in the UK.
That rules Pakistan & India out.

The problem with running a country is because all the clever people dont want to be Politicians, and that leaves the gap for 'Cocky, confident know alls'
to become MPs unfortunately.
It's hard to believe, but Angela Rayner is a Millionaire. HOW? (Google it)
Surely she should be investgated by the Fraud Dept?
