I welcome the severe sentences passed on the Pakistani cricketers for corruption. Apparently the corrupt betting industry on the Indian sub-continent is worth £50 billion.
Pakistan is a country noted for its corrupt practices according to Imram Khan, the former Test Captain and we know it is one that supports the Taliban in Afghanistan and also possesses a nuclear weapon.
India is a land with a space program and a nuclear weapon and the place where some of the richest people in the world live. The caste system condemns 37% of the population to abject poverty.
Sri Lanka is a country which has just emerged from a brutal civil war with dreadful human rights record.
All of these countries receive substantial British aid. Why?

Doc, i only know about Oxfam & some NGOs doing aid-work in India...& the church(es) as always...
'substantial British aid' no way, doc...in fact the British avionics and weapons industries Depend upon orders frm India and others and compete with other nations for this..reminds me of the ol days when good ol Britain milked India for all she was worth. Did the queen apologise? No. She did not deem it worthwhile. Shame on you.
A review of UK aid will maintain aid donations to India of £280m a year until 2015, while withdrawing assistance from countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Serbia and Moldova, the international development secretary, Andrew Mitchell, revealed.
lies damned lies and statistics...Liverpool made itself upon exploiting African innocents- capturing them & taking'em (inhumanely below deck, with so many perishing) and selling 'em as slaves for the Americans to grow their cotton and what else...
really dunno what ur 280 m will get you. or ourselves!
Yes, that's true but what is your point?
