Aid to Africa a sham?

We hear that the rich western countries are still sending aid to Africa to 'help' them. One organization thinks otherwise, but we must all be the judge ourselves too.

Having worked as a volunteer in Africa at one time, somehow this does not surprise me one bit.

Instead of keep sending millions to these countries why not sort ourselves out first? I mean how pathetic sending all this money out the country and we cannot even afford to switch the street lights on what a b****y joke this country is dear oh dear!!!

Smaller charities do far more good in places such as Africa
