But a pittance to us (say 3p a day) is a good wage in a lot of countries, and if we don't buy their stuff, then they'll be out of jobs.
Pressure by the west to have these people paid more can result in hyper inflation. Just look what's happened to house prices because couple's disposable incomes have increased so much in the past 10 years.

Or more accurately why the tories were voted out
Tho I bet the tories (that's the real tories, not new labour) have learnt their lesson and once they get back in after the next election, we can get back to fixing the country.
It's interesting how labour on one hand can talk about increasing the security checks of immigrants, yet let in huge numbers without checks on their validity etc just to fudge the figures.
