    Default Foreign Aid

    Thought I'd throw this one out there today.

    With a budget of £12.2 billion going out of the country in Foriegn aid this year I thought I'd ask whether people think this money is well spent or should be cut back,phased out to ensure our own services are improved.

    This morning I watched a few politicians squabbling over funding of the NHS the highest offer was from the conservatives of £8 billion, but then George Osbourne was grilled over where that money would come from all the parties seem to be making various offers of some Billions.

    We also have the SNP decrying the use of food banks and various other austerity measures.

    So here's a simple poll and discussion on the benefits or other points of view on Foriegn aid.

    For the record we have the second highest rate of Foriegn aid outstripped only by the USA.
