Another disaster in our world the earthquake in japan, just after a quake in Newzealand, our government has pledged help, which costs money, I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH HELPING OTHERS IN DEVASTATING CIRCUMSTANCES. i would just like to know where the money comes from, when we are told by Cameron that we are almost a bankrupt country, and we the working class have to pay extra taxes, extra vat, higher price rises on food, fuel, all goods that we purchase, we are a country on our knee's according to THE Conservatives. It seems that our country is better off than we are led to believe, as we must have the money to help - in the first place,- conned i think we are

The only people in the world this lot and the last lot did NOT look after are white English people.We are the forgotten people in this country.Cumbrian floods,mainly good white English people live in that part of the country,who looked after them?.If their were floods in London where 54% are non-English their would be money coming out of everywhere.

We are asking the same questions here. All western governments (democratic that is) actually budget for 'foreign aid'. We send money overseas (the UK floods, Chile, East Timor, NZ and now Japan) and yet we accepted money or help from the US and the UK with our recent bushfires and floods. I think it's the same money doing the rounds but very little reaching the place it is destined for ie the victims of disasters.
In the same vein - during our recent floods we all donated money via bucket collections in pubs, clubs, schools, etc. via the Salvation Army, Red Cross, and other aid organisations. A friend of mine said she refused to donate any more because she had worked in banks for many years and sometimes out of curiosity when there would be a TV news report about victims of disasters asking when they would be getting any money, she and colleagues would check out bank accounts set up to collect these funds and the money would still be sitting there untouched. Many times the money had been deposited and forgotten, or the signatories to the accounts had moved on and were no longer contactable and the accounts couldn't be accessed. Eventually that money would end up in Consolidated Revenue (government coffers). Makes you wonder doesn't it?

All these floods,and yet the worse flood we have had is about 5 million foreigners flooded into our country,and that is about a bigger disaster as you can get.

There is a theory that it is cheaper in the long run to send money to strife torn countries to improve living conditions there and thereby keep more people in their own country.
Refugees are very expensive to house and rehabilitate and a large percentage of them are unemployable because of what they've been through. Sadly, they never assimilate because they've been pushed out of their own country and live for the day when they can go back there but that day never seems to come and if they do go back they find that they don't fit in there either as things have changed. We are seeing their children and grandchildren identifying with the country that they had to flee instead of the country they were born and grew up in. Many of them go back to visit family and feel that they have been deprived of their heritage and mistakenly blame the very people who took them in instead of the forces that pushed them out.

What do you mean GOING.It has been going downhill since 1979 when Thatcher came to power,that was about the same time political correctness came to our attention,and we all know that has wrecked this country big-time.Also i don't know if you noticed who got in power last year,yes that's right the tories,and every-one knows as soon as that lot get in it is cuts cuts and more cuts.

I wouldn't worry too much about money. The way things are shaping up in Japan we might all have to worry about radiation poisoning.

Thank you so much, that really makes me feel better. Tasmania is looking very attractive at the moment - it's at the end of the earth and always very windy down there. I wish I could say LOL but it is a serious topic and I think the Japanese have already had it.

looks like we found money from somewhere, as we are bombing LIBYA, CAMERON can now use this action as the reason why his policy's are not working, [ they take the money from the working class and drop it on another country, then put our taxes up to pay for it] as tommy cooper use to say JUST LIKE THAT.

Good theory but I'm not too sure if it's right in all aspects. The problems that foreigners face are created by their own incapability to do anything for themselves, they breed with no thought, they are uneducated and lack aspirations. That is their own problem as far as I'm concerned, let them stew in their own juices. Why on earth should the UK or any other country give them money to spend on arms or drug trafficking? that's where much of it goes, little to the hungry. Personally I don't give a toss about what goes on in other countries, it has nothing to do with me and I never give to any charities associated with poor countries.
We should not accept them into the UK and that would resolve the problem with housing, social welfare etc. They are sometimes unemployable but usually do not wish to work when they can get welfare for sitting around drinking or hanging around on street corners doing absolutely nothing except worrying decent British people.
I don't think assimilation comes into the matter, I meet dozens of Asians, Polish, Somali's etc etc.... they have one thing in common, at least the ones I meet in my occupation, and that is: they are all frauds, thieves, scum of the earth, no extended views for their future, simply rely on the good old Britich taxpayer and whet they can fraudulently obtain from a weak government.
Most of them would never wish to return to their homeland because they would lose the easy life thay have in this country, free hosuing, medical teatment, welfare... makes me angry and sick to the back teeth. If they feel deprived of their heritage I have one simple answer! take the next flight back, now that's one charity I would give to, repatriate an immigrant!!
