Yeah....making money. If him - and his mates - were really concerned about the poor then they would set an example and give some of their own away. Have we seen any evidence of that? None whatsoever.
Whether we like it or not, it is now official goverment policy to increase third-world aid to a level of .7% of GNP. It might not sound alot, but that translates to Seven Billion Pounds. That is seven billion pounds of absolute waste. Just think of what we could do with one hundreth of that in Accy.
