The money and the Elephant

[akarjl2]

nice try.....

failed....

[mk1]

Given that there is absolutely no chance at all of a Farage Government then the Aid Budget is not going to change.

[mk1]

Nice easy source of funding for NHS= stop sending overseas aid= 13+ Billion for NHS

Where have I heard that (lie) before.......................




Do you really think  anyone will fall for it again?

[akarjl2]

it's not rocket science irrespective of the numbers

Stop handing out massive overseas aid

Use the money in uk.

The point is all parties are talking about increasing funding to NHS and explain how they propose doing it.

They are overlooking the obvious.

Stop giving it away.

[Johnny Bongo]

Hey Guys and gals, lighten up! Even though Mk1 can be' hard going' at times ...can't we all ....I  don't believe he was being or intended to be racist but imo was being satirical (if that's the right word?).   

[mk1]

it's not rocket science irrespective of the numbers

Stop handing out massive overseas aid

Massive means exceptionally large. Compared to developed nation averages the UK aid is not exceptionally large.

[akarjl2]

I don't really care if it's 50 pence.....

The NHS should take priority over the 'needs' off other countries.

Spend the money here not overseas.

[Inspector Knacker]

So when he says it, it's 'satirical'.......?  Oh the irony. 

[mk1]

I don't really care if it's 50 pence.....

You deliberately misrepresented the scale of the aid so you care enough to lie about it.
The UK does not 'hand out massive overseas aid'

I am surprised you appear to be defending his offensive language.

For the sake of clarity;

Satirical

A satirical drawing, piece of writing, or comedy show is one in which humour or exaggeration is used to criticize something.

Darky

offensive, slang -an offensive word for a Black person

Still want to defend his use of the word?

Misrepresented? Mmm nope.

Lie er no but nice attempt at attempting to deflect from your offensive racist post.

https://fullfact.org/economy/uk-spending-foreign-aid/

For every hundred pounds that's made in the UK, seventy pence goes towards foreign aid.

Another way to say this is that the government has a target to spend 0.7% of the UK's Gross National Income on overseas development aid each year. Gross National Income (GNI) is the UK's annual output of goods and services, plus any income we get from abroad.

In 2016, the UK spent £13.4 billion on overseas aid, in line with the 0.7% target.

Maybe we move in different circles.

£13.4 billion IS massive to most people

But I don't care what the figure is ...it needs to stop- now.

[mk1]

Misrepresented? Mmm nope.

Yep you got caught lying.

For every hundred pounds that's made in the UK, seventy pence goes towards foreign aid.

That is a 'massive' O.7%

£13.4 billion IS massive to most people

You need a base-line  if you are going to compare 'A' with 'B'.  When we compare the national averages then the UK is at the top end of the scale but in no way can it be said to be 'massive' in comparison to the average. 

But I don't care what the figure is ...it needs to stop- now.

Which is the real point. If it was 0.00007% you still would want it to be ended.

[akarjl2]

By Jove I think he's got it! - CORRECT

..charity begins at home.

Cue video/use of racist term......boom.

[mk1]

Hey Guys and gals, lighten up.....................

Better watch out, The Xenophobic Racists might deploy their faux outrage again and  say you are trying to sneak in the Minstrel tradition of 'darkening up'!

The problem is 'they' dare not say what they actually mean but if you catch them out the mask sometimes slips and they accidentally blurt out the truth. For example here is someone claiming it is the spending of Foreign Aid  on Nuclear Weapons that concerns them:

Countries developing nuclear weapons do not need overseas aid from UK................

but when confronted by the evidence that the UK spent money on Nuclear Weapons whilst receiving Foreign Aid from the USA he exploded and completely abandoned  his cover story:

This will come as no surprise but I couldn't give a flying f*c* about the Marshal Plan...............

And:

I don't really care if it's 50 pence.....

You can not reason with someone who basis his views on blind prejudice.

[akarjl2]

Kettle calling flying pan........Nope you have started playing the race card.....Dark**....Minsterel Tradition......dangerous ground you really should think about where you are heading.

For me it is all about the money. Spend it in UK

Not overseas.

Simples 

Cue extended response with quotes....mention a few racist words and try turning it around.......zzzzzzzzzz
