Default OT Your tax bill - £100 million......for roads in Africa.

Britain will today announce £100 million of funding for an ambitious
scheme to rebuild southern Africa's infrastructure after decades of
neglect.

The North-South Corridor is an attempt to create a network stretching
from South Africa in the south to the Democratic Republic of Congo and
Tanzania in the north, with spurs running off to ports on the Atlantic
and Indian oceans.

Africa is Africa, no amount of money will change that. We build roads
and they let them go to ruin. English taxpayers ought to be incensed
their money is being thrown away into that jungle. There is no
justification for giving foreign aid to anywhere, least of all Africa.

Even an African can surely make a dirt road? Roads, cars, schools,
churches, no matter what we give them it always reverts back to dust.
They are not us and should not live like us, it's a socialist monkeys
tea party on a continental scale.
