Maybe you should re-read the Widow's Mite parable again while you are about it..

Tell that to the people who aren't getting their council houses updated as promised in tyneside because 50million has been removed from the budget .There are 5 blocks of flats which are probably going to have be pulled down in cruddas park because the LA has run out of money because a private invester has pulled out ,70million would complete the project and pride some much needed housing in my area.
just to add ,i think it is absolutley ridiculous comparing the nhs budget to the 70million we are sending over to Pakistan .70 million is a drop in the ocean compared to the nhs budget or the welfare budget ..but it is a very large amount to some LA's and should not be dismissed as a poultry sum
