Don't worry Nidge, we can borrow more to replace that pittance we gave away..and then when we have given all the countries listed above enough we'll can stop sending them more money because they will all have used their freebie money to pay for their flights to britain where they will live happily ever after. Now, doesn't that give you a nice cosy warm feeling that you have in no small part helped so many through your own selflessness. |

I use to have reservations about our overseas aid, but then Mrs Sx went abroad courtesy of that aid budget. I would say the money spent by UK PLC on her and her colleagues various trips abroad, has saved 1000s of babies lives, and 1000s more in the years to come. I have no such reservations now. |

But when one such leader of a country that gets aid buys a £100 million personal jet? |

Or, our soldiers who are on the breadline and can't feed themselves because the government has tossed them onto the scrap heap? |

A lot of foreign aid is given as a sweetener to gain contracts for British companies. |

Not that fechin much, Let's try an experiment based on that idea, We'll stop all the Foreign aid and then wait to see how much poorer we in the UK will be due to the lack of Saccharin induced trade. My bet it is we'll be quids in and not quids out as those with the buying power hardly need our charity. |

I'll bet your right but a few companies with Tory MPs as directors will become very unprofitable
