Re: Cameron Pledges £650 million to Pakistan.

Cuba for one off the top of my head i am sure other countries do better with less and there is no denial from anyone that much of the nhs budget is mispent on projects and other things that we are paying far more for then we need too. If the nhs were a private sector company (no i am not supporting the privatising of the nhs) they would not spend nearly as much as they do for some things and would get far better deals then currently for being a hell of a bulk buyer.

Same old story in the UK government spending on things is way higher then the comparable private sector company. Why the hell we don't have penalty clauses when we give out contracts rather then them going over budget and overtime all the time i will never know.

Either way foreign aid brings back more return to the UK then we ever spend on it and allows us to put UK companys at the head of the queue for contracts in those countries we give aid too we benefit massively from the program.
