It's only "fair"

I suppose if you target air travellers than you will avoid upsetting Britain's hard working families

Re: Africa

Do you think people are starting to get p1ssed off with Africa? A growing number of people:

* Are aware that Africa's dodgy governments are the root cause of most ills over there

* Are irritated by Bob Geldoff and his fellow musicians

* Are realising that Gordon Brown's largesse is at our expense, not his as he would have us think.

* Mistrust Tony Blair, especially with his series of foreign disasters

Re: Africa

I recon they'll pay off all the African countries debts and in a few years time be lending them money hand over fist again. The intention being to keep Africa poor. Keeping people poor being the socialist plan.

If they are going to have "moritoriums" they should have one on lending in the first place. As I see it that would actually help.

Well you see this is where America has got it right. Yes you can have money BUT only when you are responsible enough to handle it.

Now, if only the rest of the world would wake up and smell the same coffee GW is on

ps. Speaking of GW, there is a chap here who does part time work as a model of him. Was having a look at some photo's of his and there is a photo of him and a guy who looks like Osama. Quite funny stuff really :rollin

Its great being lectured to by a bunch of celebrity millionaires about what we should be doing to end third world poverty, don't you think?
:rolleyes

Yes. I turn them off now.

Apparantly Africa has had £5 trillion in the last 20 years or so....and they've spent it! Do-gooder comment - it wasn't the right sort of aid. Brick wall - head - hit one with other until you find peace.
