if the government must borrow more money shouldnt it at least be for our benefit and not some other countires.
were giving away money to pakistan school projects yet a report released yesterday shows that child poverty is increasing in this country with children turnig up to school hungry and in tatty clothes because their parents are struggling to feed them and clothe them.Why is pakistans school problems any concern of ours when there are so many schools in the uk that could do with repairs,new eqiptment etc
a local hospice in blackburn is having to beg for money to get a new roof for gods sake.There is so much needs fixing in this country before giving money out to other countries and people are getting sick and fed up of seeing millions going out that will never be paid back.
no matter what the last government did or did not do it is this government's job to fix it and it doesn't seem to be doing a good job of it.All we are seeing is savage cuts to OUR services and increasing prices on everything from fuel to food which only appear to be benefiting others not us

All government HAVE to borrow money because the tax revenue is collected retrospective, in other words they can't spend it before you make it, but there's a difference between borrowing for need and borrowing for stupidity, I mean lets face it on top of the £43 billion interest we also have £60 billion in PFI still to be paid for, and all the other schemes that the last government signed up to without sound financial planning its a nightmare. But its absolutely amazing that after ten months out of office Labour seem to have all the answers, just a pity they didn't have them for the 13 years they were in a position to implement them
