algy Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 It's nuts! Britain is STILL giving aid to Brazil - even though it's richer than we areTaxpayers are funding aid to Brazil even though it has become richer than Britain, Whitehall officials admitted yesterday. Millions has been handed over in development aid in recent years despite the rapid rise of Brazil to the top rank of world economies. And money is still going to the Latin American powerhouse in the week it was revealed to have overtaken Britain in the world’s economic league table. Good times: Brazil, famous for its carnival in Rio de Janeiro (pictured), overtook Britain in the world's economic league table The continuing aid to Brazil comes against a background of deepening criticism of the Coalition’s foreign aid plans and its determination to keep raising spending on development in supposedly poor countries. David Cameron and his ministers are pledged to raise aid spending, currently worth £9billion a year and 0.57 per cent of national income, to 0.7 per cent. Aid spending went up by £1.24billion in the last financial year alone. Brazil was this week listed as sixth in the world economic league table by the Centre for Economics and Business Research. The City think tank found that the country’s economy will produce more than $2.5trillion this year, pushing ahead of UK economic product, which will be just under the $2.5trillion mark. Lt how do you justify this!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Meet India's new multibillion dollar aircraft carrier..... Launched yesterday. I'm sure that Kije will be happy to know that our £280 million a year aid budget is still continuing to fund this until at least 2015...

Lt Kije Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Again you fail to see the bigger picture, India is the biggest democracy in the World, it also has a border with a failing State (Pakistan) it is doing no more than any other democracy would do when sharing a border with a failing State. Would you like India to be unstable as well Baz. Knowing what Obs is like with White immigrants I would not like to see him if a wave of non white immigrants came over again, his disguise would slip again.

Bazj Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 If they have enough money of their own (and ours) to build aircraft carriers; they have enough money to police the border with Pakistan.... they choose not to do so and con people like you into believing they need our cash to stop terrorists when all the time they are building things like this. The bigger picture Kije is that they are taking us for mugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted August 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Your flogging a dead horse Baz; reality doesn't fit with his rose tinted outlook ! You've got to laugh at the word "unstable", perhaps we should fund the Egyptian Army too, just to provide "stability"? ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Kije Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 The West does fund the Egyptian army Obs, did you not no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted August 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Of course I KNOW Kije! Your argument being, that "aid" stabilises these Countries; therefore if we sub the Egyptians all their instability will evaporate - obvious nonsense. Likewise, we're subbing Pakistan, and they don't come more "unstable" than that ! As I said, it's all notional, smoke and mirrors, without any tangible evidence of reciprocal benefit - and you fall for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
