why does the government(which ever in power) feel it can borrow money in our name, make us pay charges on it. cut back all our services then give it away to keep children alive in other countrys who in a couple of years will then be starving, as to many serviving so we will have to give yet more money we do not have to save them again.
why do they not ask us what we want doing with our hard earned money instead of taking out money for this perhaps they should stop taking it and allow us to choose which charitys we wish to give it to.
no i am not hard and wish to see children die but starving to death is not the answer either. birth control, education,independance are things we should be helping them with as they can then start to afford there own medication etc we have to look long term and stop all the short term intervention that costs millions over and over we should also take into account how much that country spends on guns,planes ,tanks etc and reduce the amount of aid given by same amount or we are just helping subsidise the cost of these things for them this is only my opinion but yet more dept makes my blood boil val

    With you all the way on this one valval. Mother Nature has population control measures which should be allowed to work but Man, in his infinite and stupid wisdom, is gradually erasing them one by one. We already have an overcrowded planet, those who live as a result of the innoculation programme will need food and water (both of which their countries usually cannot provide) so the cost to the West will just escalate.

    I cannot bear the huggy-huggy-kissy-kissy-look-at-the-pwetty-little-wabbit culture in which we now live. The world is not full of sunshine (well, parts of it are and they are a continual drain on our resources) and it is not a place where bad things cannot be allowed to happen. The word NO exists and should be used a damn site more often. Unfortunately people have forgotten how to use it (until it comes to disability benefits, then it's sprayed around like anyone's business). DD

    No jillyb your spot on, you must have your logic glasses on is all I will say. This issue doesn’t need to be complex it’s a simple case of maths tied with COMMON sense.
    Africa’s population is growing fast so is India’s and Pakistan’s, not to mention other countries in that part of the world, we see the effects here via mass immigration etc, 85% of kids born here have parents who weren’t says it all and this number will keep going up, immigration will increase by shear numbers as the Earths population keeps rising it’s logical it will.
    What I can’t understand are those amongst us who see an ever increasing Earth population as a good result as for unhinderd mass immigration here, how crowded do they want it anyway?, the people who think like this are very dangerous to us all white black brown yellow,all of us, they have both their ores in the water so to speak, the more humans there are the more the ecosystem is in danger of fatal collapse, all the technology in the world wont save us, sadly these idiots think it will.
    We don’t own this planet were only lodgers, the landlord will kick us out without a second thought. Cameron would have been far better off giving this borrowed money to a contraception project there and here in the inner cities.

    I have written to Mr D Cameron pointing out that some of our own population is in need of assistance. DD

    Did anyone see Cameron on the news being questioned over this matter, he was asked what would he say to a hospital worker here who was losing their job due to cuts, typically he didn’t answer it but spouted on about how the charity was “value for money” ,I felt a sudden urge to shoot my TV not sure why, but selling your own people down the river for your own ego shows you the measure of the man, he thinks with his heart and not with his head so were stuffed. The NHS will fall apart under him,why does every political party mess with the health service all the time, it's like musical bloody chairs.
    Dave if your reading this STOP right there, don't do anything leave it alone it's had enough change no one knows what the heck is going on with it as it is, we can't get treatemnt here due to cost but your happy to throw .7 of a billion away on pet charity projects that make as much sense as burning it would, money borrowed I might add in our kids name, you are p*$%£ing up my kids inheritence, stop giving money away you haven't got and stop causing wars we should not be fighting in the first place you t*^t.
