Shouldn't charity begin at home 2 ?

A few days ago (click here) I said how we need to start looking after our own country first, and not be relying on charity handouts to keep vital services running.

The BNP HAVE THIS REPORT CLICK HERE on how we the UK public are 293 times less worthy it seems than the rest of the world.

In the same week that Gordon Brown announced £1 million in flood aid to Cumbria, the Department For International Development gave out an incredible £293 million in foreign aid to Sri Lanka, Pakistan, the World Bank, Sierra Leone and Ethiopia.

How your money was given away

- 21 November 2009: £1 million given to the International Organisation of Migration to provide transport, shelter, clean water and sanitation for Sri Lankans involved in a civil war in that country;

- 19 November 2009: £34 million in aid to Pakistan to “rebuild businesses and agriculture for millions of people” in that country. The money will be spent in the North West Frontier Province, and South Waziristan in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. It includes £2 million in new aid to South Waziristan to improve water and health facilities for more than 1.2 million people.

The DFID press release also proudly announces that Mr Brown recently announced an additional £10 million in aid to “help rebuild infrastructure, stimulate the economy and improve local agriculture.”

- 19 November 2009: £1.5 million in aid was given to the World Bank’s Global Road Safety Facility to “make roads safer and improve driving skills in some of the world’s poorest countries.”

- 18 November 2009: £34 million was given to help fund healthcare in Sierra Leone.

- 18 November 2009: £172.5 million aid package given to “provide humanitarian relief” in Ethiopia.

- 15 November 2009: £40 million given to the Nepalese government’s National Forestry Programme which will “ give Nepalese communities ownership of the thousands of hectares of forest currently under government control, helping some of the world’s poorest people to earn an income from their natural resources.”

* The Conservative Party has promised to double foreign aid should it come to power. At the same time the Tories have promised domestic cutbacks to help “balance the budget.”

British people are always put last by the Lib-Lab-Con alliance. Only the British National Party will put British people and British interests first. The BNP demands that not a penny of foreign aid be spent while there is a single person in need in Britain.
