I have suggested to the Govt, that those DfID creatures, and other woke do-gooders that enthusiastically give-away our money, should themselves be sent "on secondment" to help in-country, those places they so readily claim they wish to support, while sat at their desks in London offices!!
Also, posted earlier on two other threads, in direct response to DfID related posts by others . . . .

Well goodness me !!
If I may be allowed to enjoy - for a while - and bask, in my own "self-reflected" satisfaction
.
They - the Government - should be aware, that this "result", will only encourage me to continue sending them un-solicited suggestions . . . .

Dear . . .
“JOINED-UP” GOVERNMENT THINKING INITIATIVE AND ACTION
SITUATION: UNSUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC GROWTH - OVER POPULATION - MIGRATION
There is a facetious argument that is often used in a malicious manner, with the deliberate intent of misleading the electorate -
that in order to maintain a level of economic activity, and sustain an established standard of living - a falling birth-rate and consequent decline in, and aging of, the population, should and can ONLY be alleviated by (uncontrolled) immigration.
This of course is false and disingenuous!
A declining population . . . .
A declining population can be seen as a natural occurrence/reaction within many species, from a sense of, and the effects of, over-population. It should NOT be regarded as strange, or unnatural, just because the species been considered, happens to be humans.
With regard to (some) human populations the effect of this - natural, normal, principle - can be recognised amongst the “developed western” economies.
As for the rest . . . mainly southern hemisphere . . . “the West” has unfortunately been salving its “White Mans’ burden” and has been perpetuating the over-breeding - by ineffectual foreign aid - in the form of food provision and water relief . . . and not sufficient birth control.
“Climate Change” . . . “Global Warming” . . . is all caused by too many humans on a very small and delicate planet, that only has very finite natural resources, that are now reaching exhaustion!
What Europe, the EU, our own UK Government, and every other supposedly “responsible” authority, has to do . . . is to introduce a MANAGED decline in human population, with a consequent MANAGED pro-rata reduction in overall economic activity . . . that will be sustainable for the (very) long-term, and that will sustain an established standard of living, on an individual basis.
The answer to alleviating any perceived problems, is NOT to advocate and promote (uncontrolled) immigration, in order to maintain long-term unsustainable economic growth.
SUGGESTED RESPONSE: “JOINED-UP GOVERNMENT THINKING”
With regard to the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) and (uncontrolled) migration . . .
The UK Government RESPECTED the wishes of those . . . living in some of the most beautiful and resource rich areas of the world . . . that they should be allowed to govern themselves.
It is evident . . .
that for a multitude of reasons . . . the subsequent prosperity, and welfare of those areas, has not been universally successfully improved.
Unfortunately, this has NOW manifested itself, in the huge disruptive migration of many skilled, fit, and capable members from those societies/areas.
It is suggested that, the FCO should make available . . . advice and mentoring services
within those countries that request - and acknowledge - such assistance would be beneficial.
When requested, the FCO would deploy members of its own staff - and arrange for the secondment of specialist and technical staff from ALL the Departments within the UK Civil Service . . . staff that can constructively and positively assist, once they deploy to, work and reside
within those countries, that request such administrative assistance.
It is suggested that the anticipated positive results from the above, should contribute to reducing -
if not eliminating completely - the current uncontrolled and irresponsible population explosion . . . which is “driving” the unnecessary disruptive economic migration of populations.
To better administer co-ordinate and fund the above initiative it is suggested that . . .
a. The Department for International Development (DfID) should be returned to its “Natural Home” for administrative, operational, financial accountability purposes, within the FCO.
b. Under whatever organisational structure, it is suggested that all the present DfID initiatives and responsibilities should become the responsibility of the FCO. The practical advice and assistance from the FCO -
mentioned earlier - will be far more affective and beneficial, than the current dispersal and utilisation of DfID financial resources, and other initiatives.
c. The present funding of DfID (unnecessarily enshrined in statute as 0.7% of UK Gross National Income), would be used by the FCO to fund the suggested new programme of practical advice and administrative assistance from the FCO, mentioned above.
FURTHER
In parallel with the above, it is suggested that all NGOs providing foreign aid should loose their charitable status, UNLESS they specifically and ONLY concentrate on supplying advice and resources to provide affective birth control, that will introduce responsible, controlled, human reproduction, and relieve the existing irresponsible population explosion.
It is a fundamental truth . . . that there is NO shortage of food in the world. There is NO shortage of water in the world . . . There IS an OVER population - where the resources are INSUFFICIENT to sustain THAT population.
CONCLUSION
Confirmation would be appreciated from individual addressees, that all the above will be received and considered in the positive and constructive manner in which it is written.
Sincerely,
RCT(V)

Whilst I did receive a "standard" anodyne letter of acknowledgment from some poor sod at DfID, in East Kilbride, I (we?), can only hope for yet further initiatives, from the other recipients !!
