15% of UK households went hungry as of February this year, I'm pretty sure 12.5 BILLION pounds could've done a lot of them, but instead that money was spent in Ukraine. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/feb/27/health-emergency-15-of-uk-households-went-hungry-last-month-data-shows

The deplorable regime in UK doesn't give a shit about its own people, let alone Ukrainians.
