I read the other day that as Britain considers reducing it spending on defence India has just ordered a new nuclear warship costing 2 billion pounds...we gave them £800m this year in overseas aid..do they need our aid cash if they can afford to fritter away £2b on a never to be used nuclear warship...it beggars belief and theres more (to use Jimmy Crickets punchline) the £250 million we recently gave to Sierra Leonne has all but vanished into thin air.
Most forumites will know me as a labourite, a leftie or even a loony but this aid was hopefully awarded in order to improve the "lot" of the poor by providing food education and health care together with improvements in the countrys infra-structure and was not gifted so that corrupt govt officials and bent UK contractors can line their own pockets.
Its time for a "Torygraph" expose of where our overseas aid money is going and what its being spent on.
