...think africa, 10,000+ people dying every week, up to 30,000 a week from famine, starvation, malnutrition, disease, civil war etc etc etc..
not being pedant about this, but because other countries arent holidaying/staying there, its been left to aid agencies to beg for help, cos we have 200+brits killed/missing, everyone wants to give. seems a little ironic, no? a definate case of N.I.M.B.Y when it comes to really going all out and taking the lead to help the poorest continent
