Revealed: The tiny South Pacific island which receives £70,000 in British taxpayers' money for each of its 52 inhabitants
Pitcairn Island has received £10million since 2009 but residents pay no tax
52 inhabitants are descendants of sailors from the Mutiny on the Bounty
The money pays for almost all public services on the island, because the local pay no tax.
In 2012-13 DfID set a budget of £3.6million for the 'effective and efficient management of Pitcairn's public services provision'.
It is 140 per cent higher than the £1.5million spent in 2009-10 before the coalition was formed.
David Cameron has vowed to protect the foreign aid budget from cuts, while the axe has fallen on the police, border forces, social services and councils.
