Why is a poverty stricken country, us, giving £1,000,000,000 in aid to India? They have their own space programme at a cost of £1.7 billion. Their defence spending of £23 billion would be grabbed by our armed forces, who are reputedly fighting for oil and gas in Afghanistan without proper equipment.
Whilst our economy is faltering, the Indian economy is forging ahead, second only to China in growth. This is what we elect our politicians to see to and they are patently not doing their job. Cameron is shutting down all sorts of public facilities from libraries to swimming pools and yet, he can give our money away to countries who obviously don't need it.
What is going on?
