UK giving money and aid to other countries

If the UK is in so much financial trouble why do we still give millions to other countries.This has to stop.They would not help us.The money sent goes missing and pays for a corrupt leadership to fly around in their private jet.

global politics is about stepping on your own nationals to reach the global stage

The amount given away is a minute fraction of what the Uk borrows. To put it into simple terms its about the same percentage to you dropping a penny and not picking it up.

Yes it stinks when the money doesn’t get to who really needs it but that’s what happens sometimes.

I heard that Bob Geldoffs Live Aid money went missing.

Although we give MILLIONS in foreign aid its not much when expressed as a % of our G.D.P.I was surprised to see a Boeing Dreamliner in the colours of Ethiopian Airways.I thought that they were poor.
