I've said on here previously its not a binary choice between looking after our citizens and foreign aid. If your that bothered about poverty in this country then why are you voting/supporting BJ? Poverty has only increased since the Tories have been in office. Take a look at how many food banks we had on 2010 compared to now.

If you're that bothered about the police/CPS why vote Tory? They've cut 21k police. Go and check out what the law society think of our criminal justice system and who they think is responsible.

Foreign Aid is a convenient target, for Tory voters and politicians. As was the EU. And do you know why - because it is easier for them them to blame others than their own failings. As you are doing now. Do you think its because we give £50m aid to China is the reason why nurses need to use foodbanks? Don't delude yourself.

This Government are shameful, an international embarrassment. But the biggest mugs are the people who vote for them. And then complain about poverty, and then blame the EU or Foreign Aid for the poverty or inflation or any other nonsense that the Tory government inflicts upon. We have a stupidly dumb electorate.


You have your views and I have mine but you fail to comment on some of the points!

As for your comment - stupidly dumb electorate - that's a very uneducated thing to say! Never underestimate the intelligence of the voters, nor overestimate the amount of of knowledge at their disposal. Many who voted Brexit were professionals including successful business owners (James Dyson etc), lawyers, surgeons... Whilst you many not agree with how these people voted they are far from stupid or dumb!
