Why not use the massive funds HMG allocated to aid, to fund military action to get rid of Libya’s (and others) brutal, megalomaniac, corrupt dictator
The coalition Government is pledging £8.4 billion this year, rising to over £11 billion by 2015. Why not use the massive funds allocated to aid by HMG for projects like the cost to defend a country’s (as in Libya) inhabitants from their brutal, megalomaniac, pariah, corrupt, dictator, suspected of committing massive crimes against humanity. Aid funds can also be used to build desalination & hospital ships to serve areas affected by famine, drought & epidemics. Registered charities should work with HMG to coordinate their efforts in delivering aid directly & effectively, rather giving aid funds to corrupt overseas governments to 'distribute' aid to their populace. British Industry & workforce should preferably be involved & paid at commercial rates to deliver aid. When our armed forces withdraw from active combat duties in Afghanistan by end of 2014, any surplus helicopters, armoured vehicles & other equipment should be sold at commercial rates rather than donating them to Afghanistan.
