I don't know why we are giving cash to a nuclear power in the first place.

UK Government Aid to Pakistan was increased due to the devastating floods which occurred there. There was an immediate need and the British public and our Government responded.

// The UK will build 27,000 flood resistant permanent homes, providing some 189,000 women, men and children a permanent roof over their heads. The UK is helping a further 28,500 families to repair their homes damaged by last year’s floods, by providing items such as tarpaulin sheets, ropes, pegs, and poles. //

Pro-taliban militants have murdered a doctor. If you believe this means the country does not deserve our aid or that it should be reduced then you are wrong. You would be punishing the wrong people and doing what the Taliban want. The Taliban want Aid workers to leave so they can play the saviours.

The best way to make sure the Taliban succeeds in Pakistan is to cut aid.

I don't know why we give aid or even send out aid personal out there only to be butchered by these savages.
