UK Foreign Aid crisis

The UK government has ringfenced 0.7% rise in Foreign Aid equal to Stg 4 bn a year!
Last week Melanie Phillips from the Daily Mail was booed on Question time by suggesting that our Foreign Aid should stop!
However, she has received much support from the person on the street and quite rightly so!

As I mentioned the other day, Foreign Aid is doing nothing apart from lining other peoples pockets

Take India as an example.
We give a lot of money to India and they have millions of poor people.
Where does our money go?Their own space programme and even their own Foreign Aid programme!!!

Live Aid raised Stg 90 million in 1985 and some money went to Ethiopia whose regime lured 600,000 people to camps
and who subsequently were deported and of which 100,000 died.

Mr Cameron suggests that if we cut aid this will cause more terrorism. Well so far I haven't seen any reduction of terrorism for the Aid we give!

Aid to Afghanistan had to be stopped after a U.S. report said that Stg 1bn was missed through corruption and I wonder why Kharzai looks so well and his family have bought many properties abroad?

The Prime Minister has announced Stg 110 mio in Aid for Egypt, Tunisia and the Middel East.
This is the same group that are making fortunes from OIL and what they charge us! Let the Oil rich countries fund them.

The British donate more to humanitarian causes than anyone else in Europe.
Six times more than Germany and seven times more than the French.

Bear in mind that the EU want more tax from the British worker and more money is going to NHS and other depts, how much more can we give before the whole system collapses?

UK Foreign Aid currently at Eur 8.7 bln and will rise to Eur 12.4 bln, imagines what we can do with that in the UK??
