I should imagine by now that everyone on this board is well aware of my feelings on Foreign aid. I think it should stop tomorrow and I think it is high time that we have a good debate about what I consider to be utter waste. Please feel free to vent your anger on me if you think I am wrong but more importantly.....prove me wrong. Edited by Rich, Feb 18 2017, 04:33 PM.

High time we had a debate on it? As if we've never discussed it? What about this time (last August)? http://w11.zetaboards.com/UK_Debate_Mk_2/topic/11739148/1/ Or the Poll we had last June? http://w11.zetaboards.com/UK_Debate_Mk_2/topic/11669771/1/#new And then there was this time: http://w11.zetaboards.com/UK_Debate_Mk_2/topic/11126864/1/ We should manage it better but we should also challenge those who spout bollocks about it |

But we have not really gone in to it in depth and dug up facts and figures and as for Priti Patel....does she actually know where the dosh is going to, who actually follows up and sees the end result of our investment in foreign countries?....not enough questions have been asked imo and I have made it quite plain that I would like to see foreign aid given in kind as opposed to hard cash, that way,dubious bank accounts in Zurich or elsewhere will not continue to burgeon. |
