Money could be better spent on building homes
Houses in the uk are too expensive. The average house price in the uk is now £272,000.
There are millions of people who want to buy a house but cannot afford to.
We spend £11.3bn a year on foreign aid, for example £21.2m was spent on a roads project in Bangladesh that had to be pulled.
Don’t you think we should use at least half of this money to build houses to help people in our country before we spend it overseas?
This will reduce house prices for everyone.
