    India asks for aid to be stopped and DfID refuses?

    India tells Britain: We don't want your aid - Telegraph

    So why don't we say 'okey kokey, and off we go'.

    India’s Finance Minister has said that his country “does not require” British aid, describing it as “peanuts”.









    Never blow someone else's trumpet.

    This is just an embarassment for HMG. Given the popular perception in India tends to be that we ruled the country as dictators and bled it try of its natural wealth for 200 years it is not altogether surprising that they do not look favourably upon trade agreements with us. Quietly drop the aid - there are plenty of other ex-colonies we could assist.

    They can give the cash to me. I'll even pretend to build a space rocket, and flip the odd quid to a homeless joe-daki if it helps?

    Rather than going to other colonies, i'd prefer it just for shits and giggles, it went to a country that needs a cash injection as it's close to becoming a third world country. Looking at my atlas i believe it's called the UK

    We are sending money to India? Why? Should it not be the other way round?

    Why don't we cut out the middle man and just send them peanuts instead of money? Then they could feed their starving instead of building nuclear weapons or orbital satellites.
    We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.

    In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

    We should send them back-dated issues of Razzle 1992 through to 2004. This way the local population may realise that it's not acceptable for their ladies to have sideys longer than Elvis' and hairy quims. The mingers.

    £250 million a year eh? I bet there are countries in Africa that would rip our arm off for that! Nice of them to give money away to people who don't want it, whilst we are in a financial poo poo ourselves. Not to mention it's all taxpayer's dosh. Can I stop paying my tax until they stop this aid?

    ps. AND they didn't even manage to sell the bloody Typhoon, the useless pillocks...

    If they don't want it, why the fuck are we still sending it? Have these useless cunts in Westminster not pinged that we are in a crisis and need that money ourselves? Fucking wankers. Cameron should be called to explain what the fuck he's doing, the cunt.

    In India, meanwhile, government audit reports found £70 million had disappeared from one DFID-funded project alone.
    Hundreds of thousands of pounds was spent on delivering more than 7,000 televisions to schools — most of which did not have electricity. Few of the televisions ever arrived. A further £44,000 of British aid was allegedly siphoned off by one project official to finance a movie directed by her son.
    I wonder how much of the £3bn budget the DFID has is pissed away on stuff like this?
