Charity begins at home , help all our victims of the floods .

surely the meaning of charity begins at home means exactly that,help others sure,but the whole south coast needs it more urgently.As usual the government ignores the wishes of the people ,which may be its own undoing

It is time all political parties stopped giving OUR money to other countries and looked after people in this country----- the tax payer--- the people who pay their salaries and bloated expenses.

charity, begins at home

Cameron ir the worst ever conservative leader and worst prime minister,dripping wet ,

so many people we know now firmly believe that charity begins at home.

I am extremely surprised that people are concentrating on raising funds from individuals to distribute thus reducing the money available to the economy as a whole instead of concentrating on campaigning for the Government to reduce considerably the Overseas aid given by the U,K. Charity begins at home !! Please inform me of Donations given to the U.K. from overseas Governments.

We are not a Milk Cow for the rest of the world.

Thank you.

If food was very short in the UK would we send food abroad? As money for flood relief is needed in the UK why send so much to corrupt Governments overseas?

If this is passed! it could win the PM the next election

Spend money where it is need. Look after iwn people before taking care of other countries!

We need to keep the "Home Fires Burning" & look after ourselves

~This must have cost David Cameron the next election. Does he know how livid the British people are in coming last in help needed. Its a disgrace and, of course, charity should begin at home first and foremost. Get real Mr. Cameron - you're lost the plot. Foreign aid should be reduced drastically.

politicians of all parties believe they have a right to waste our money on grand schemes for their own glorification - it's got to stop!

I hope David Cameron and the government realize how many people in this country feel about overseas aid.
Charity certainly should begin at home!

Get the help to the victims as soon as possible

The money sent to countries that can afford to fund space programs etc. do not need our money and there are plenty of projects in this country that do, the floods being the latest. This money could go towards hospitals schools roads etc. What makes the ministers in charge think that they know more than people who have lived in these areas all their lives. Is about time they learnt to listen.

Countries that can afford a space programme do not need our aid. This is our money and we should have some say in how it is spent. Charity begins at home, overseas aid should be by voluntary contributions.

Charity must begin at home. We must help these folks. Some have lost homes, liveliehoods, everything and will carry that loss for months and months!!

Recently retired soldier, through 25 years of serving this great country of ours I have never questioned the government, wasn't our place to.... However now I am. Mr Cameron do something about these floods now, it's commendable we help other countries but let's help our own 1st for a change, do you think these other countries would help us? Not a chance, suspend foreign aid and re- allocate to the home front until all this is sorted, why the hell do we need a petition for this? It should be the 1st thing that comes into the minds of those ball washers in parliament!
Once the situation is under control then send your aid again, but really do we need to send the amount we do? The majority of it doesn't reach the needy, I seen this 1st hand in Africa and Afghanistan, vast amounts are lost in corruption.
Show the world why we have the word GREAT in our name. Act ASAP for gods sake

As a "Christian" country we have a duty of care to look after our neighbours first and foremost.
Thanks to the Daily Mail,Sky,and the Free Press the Nation is aware that our Goverment needs to make urgent and rapid ammends to the Victims of this Natural National Disaster. There should be one National Charity Fund via Daily Mail/ Sky for all victims as opposed to several little funds.
Now is not the time for blame game,2014 is the year to spend the £11 billion of overseas aid in
Great Britan and help our neighbour in S.Ireland if required. Time to show ruthless leadership Mr Cameron and take care of the decent British folk
who are suffering the worst disaster since WW II.

Help must be given A.s.A.p to all these people and animals involved.Yes for once charity begins at home Mr Cameron and co.

Stop sending money to country's that don't need it and abuse it ,we have a NHS on its knees, in Nottingham small children refused operations because the Trust will not fund them what a joke .

stop wasting our money on foreign schemes.. i demand the money be spent on our own ! our tax,es our needs, not politicians vanity projects!!!
