School of Northern Rocks!

How is spending £825m of British taxpayer's money on India's poorest children "protecting British taxpayers"!?!

"He [Gordon Brown] said the money would be used to train 300,000 new teachers and build 300,000 new classrooms, meaning 4m more children would receive an education."

In other news: "UK public borrowing surged last month to show the biggest deficit since records began a decade ago."

Gordon, steady as she sinks!

Sorry about this, but why are we paying any overseas aid at all, surely we have paid off the debt that the socialists think we owe for empire years ago. It is not as if the countries we have poured this money into over the years are actually in a position to buy stuff from us. Look a Zimbabwe, look at Kenya, one I had high hopes of.

If India is to be one of the future economic superpowers should they not be giving us money? I think I read somewhere that Broon also gave China 50m aid as well! It just doesn't make any sense. Time to get rid of the students who run this country.
