P-06-1520 Stop all foreign aid payments from the Welsh Government including to "Size of Wales" – Correspondence from the Petitioner to the Committee, 10 September 2025

Petitions Committee

Thank you for your e-mail and copies of the letter from  Jane Hutt.

The fact that the Size of Wales and other charities/NGO's are doing good work in there eyes and helping to reduce the climate change scam does not in any way make up for what is in effect stealing money from the Welsh economy. 

All these ridiculous schemes in foreign lands do nothing to help the people of Wales. 

Does it help to give the struggling Welsh NHS better care for the sick No.

Does it help the children in Wales to get a better education No.

Does it help the people of Wales in any way at all the answer is always NO.

The Welsh Assembly has no mandate to be stealing Welsh taxpayers money to fund projects of this kind. 

They hand money to charities because they cant fund these projects direct so its a slight of hand close to money laundering and should be illegal.  

They are there to represent and  lead the people of Wales to the best future possible not to grandstand on the world stage to make themselves feel good. 

There are reports from Uganda that they have located gold reserves worth 12.8 Trillion Dollars so they can afford to fund these programs themselves. 

There are also reports of  subsistence farmers being evicted from there land by the NGO's to plant trees sometimes violently.  

 Why is it that politicians always think that they can be philanthropic with other peoples money never there own. 

Taxpayers money not Welsh assembly money is what this is about as the Welsh Assembly has no money it all belongs to the taxpayers not the politicians

 that think they can hand it out to other countries for no benefit to the hard pressed taxpayers. 

I am sure the Senedd will take no notice of this letter but hopefully they wont be there much longer and the new MSP will stop this misuse of taxpayers money. 

Yours sincerely 

R Leggett
