The Uk spends around 14 bn per year on foreign aid. The top recipients include Pakistan,Ethiopia,Afghanistan,Nigeria and Syria. Many of these countries are embroiled in war, corruption and religious extremism Rarely is any improvement seen to benefit the ordinary people.
By 2021 we could be spending in excess of 16 bn. The Gov. has a legal obligation to hand this money over and to meet 0.7% of the target. 64% goes on individual projects in individual countries and humanitarian aid. 36% goes via UN and other agencies.
Projects like a Pakistani Amazon,the Pakistan space prog Suparco, a shopping mall in Nigerian phone shops in Egypt,cafe chains in Vietnam,a Brazilian fitness chain, private schools, cable tv in Krygistan,IMAX cinemas in Far East,&26m given to Congo palm olive co..were all funded
A report in 2017 from the Nat.Audit office said that fraud investigations involving FA have quadrupled over 5 yrs. It claimed that more public money was being given to fragile countries via organisations like the UN or World Bank. Financial crimes in UN orgs. are endemic.
Despite numerous petitions and pleas to minimise FA and to invest in helping our homeless including our ex military on the streets and those in need here in the UK, successive UK Govs have seen fit to ignore common sense and the scale of homeless Brits is rising.
The @ForBritainParty believes that FA does little to truly benefit the very people it is aimed for. We believe that our hard earned money is used to prop up enemies of western civilisations and brutal theocratic regimes. We also believe that the UN is not fit for purpose.
The @ForBritainParty will end FA. No further funds should be provided to nations such as Pakistan or Nigeria as this is ineffective and immoral. The UK is probably the most compassionate nation and takes its obligations seriously and will provide assistance in times emergency.
The @ForBritainParty will confront the hypocrisy and anti western bias of the UN and demand it be brought to an end. We challenge and oppose the the OIC at the UN and condemn their sharia law advocacy. We also find it reprehensible that Saudi is elected to the UN HRC.
The @ForBritainParty acknowledges that our defence budget is not up to scratch, that our forces have been let down whilst on tours and when they leave their employ. We believe that our forces should be respected and praised and given high regard as in USA.
The @ForBritainParty believes that by stopping FA we can invest not only extra funds into education,NHS but can ensure a programme of priority housing for ex forces with automatic health/ mental health care provision and jobs. Gateways to careers within prison, police, border
The @ForBritainParty will also use funding to build/create its first military hospital. We will not tax o/s duty personnel in forces and we aim to ensure that no ex services personnel ever end up on the streets. There will also be a dedicated minister of Veterans.
