We are a rich country, despite what you may hear. Overseas aid is 0.7% of our GDP - diddly squat to us, but makes a significant difference where its needed; we can be proud of it.The MOD is where big money could be saved, stop getting involved in pointless conflicts, which solves nothing, made things worse and us less safe. Massive waste of life and money.

As for flooding - everyone wants to blame someone else but we're all responsible. The climate is changing and we all as individuals have contributed. Flood defences/more money just poor sticking plasters that will ultimately fail. We're not treating the cause.
