While we continue to give millions of pounds to countries like India (£150m to a space faring, nuclear power), and a larger amount to Pakistan (which spends £2bn pa on its nuclear forces), to prop up its schools, health and social programs. We top this with billions more for incredibly dubious schemes in other third world nations, in Foreign Aid. While our own country is in serious need of some TLC.
But we are effectively broke, with spending restrictions on domestic expenditure such as health and transport. But foreign aid spending just rises relentlessly and currently stands at £12bn pa.
