Rejected petition The Government should curb overseas aid and maintain the Older Peoples hard earned entitlements
More details
The Government currently spends Millions of pounds on overseas aid a large amount of which goes into the pockets of corrupt foreign officials,and in some cases ( India ) for example neither needs or wants our aid,yet we are due to increase this.Surely it is time our Government used our taxes for our ( UK ) benefit,were this the case there would be no need to even consider removing the hard earned entitlement of our older people,in fact an increase in the state pension would also be possible.
