Shock, horror - $130m (£85m) of aid to the interim Somali government has gone 'walkies' i.e. missing, aka 'stolen'- taken by 'pirates in suits'.
Personally I would have been shocked if the money hadn't been stolen by the officials. But then I live in the real world and not the PC La La land that most Western politicians apparently inhabit ... especially when they are handing out our taxpayers money.
- This is Africa, these are amongst the most corrupt of all the peoples in Africa and yet people are surprised.
- This is after all the land where piracy has become a scourge and yet people are surprised.
- This is the country where kidnap and extortion are a way of life, and yet people are surprised.
