I for one would sooner the UK banks and financial institutions get the
British tax payers money than all the other countries in the world
who's representatives come knocking on the door of No 10 saying give
me, give me, give me .

institutions twice over with the stupid money they are throwing away
on Iraq and flaming Afghanistan and save the totally senseless loss of
our servicemen's lives in the process .
We should NOT have a single penny spare to give to other countries of
the world now after the billions of pounds Darling gave away during
this week but we will have of course even if means many of our own
citizens have to go bare footed and starving .

Britain has always been a trading nation.
Look up the Navigation Acts and The Opium Wars to see
how we made our money.
