More details

Lets take an analogy your kids come home from school and are very hungry , you say “can’t feed you yet there are some chimney’s I need you to crawl up and clean”. Your neighbor comes around and you say here’s twenty quid go and treat your self to a take away.

OK a bit strong maybe a bit deluded , maybe rubbish, no more rubbish than the idiot MP I heard on TV yesterday saying along the lines unless we support third world countries they may breed terrorists; what absolute clap trap!

OK lets get the facts; lets take Ghana, they are going to get 90 million each year for the next few years; where is the money going to and what are they doing with it. That’s the problem you can not get any straight answers. I spent quite a bit of time in Ghana and corruption is endemic.

Why should we chuck away Millions when we are now closing down organisations like re-employ?
