It all depends on how that money is spent, knowing how corrupt some countries can be.
I can only hope it goes towards preventing contagious diseases being spread throughout the world, in the way that Covid was spread.

Get used to it, Captain. The rest of the world will have to step up if Trump's threats to defund international organizations comes to pass.

Nearly five months into a Labour government and UK food bank numbers are at a record high:
- 1300 are operated by the Trussel Trust
- 1172 are registered as independent food banks.
With our borders wide open, it's only going to get worse

Labour want more to be in work.
Labour discourage higher employment because of increased employer tax rises.
One hand does not know what the other hand wants.

So? A budget for growth from 'Rachel from Accounts'?
'The number of companies fleeing the London Stock Exchange has soared to its highest level in 14 years – when Labour was last in government – as the UK’s investment appeal continues to tumble.
A staggering 45 companies have de-listed so far this year, the most since 2010, according to Bloomberg data'.
