The UK has always given large amounts in foreign aid. More tests need to be in place to qualify for Foreign Aid and the money saved should be used to invest in the UK. With the uncertainty of Brexit, the government should reduce Foreign Aid by 50% for a minimum of 5 years and spend the difference here in the UK for the UK.
