The man who stole your old age.

The
Man Who Stole Your Old Age has flown to Africa to spend £8.5 billion on a
publicity stunt. That's how much of our money Great Statesman Gordon is giving
to create school places for every child in the developing world.
Who asked him to do that? If that money is spent as wisely as the billions
Gordon has "invested" in Britain, the children of the developing world face a
pretty bleak future. Anyway, what has overseas development got to do with the
Chancellor? Isn't that what Tony Benn's boy is supposed to do for a living?
Gordon's very generous with other people's money. Especially if it means he gets
his picture taken with Nelson Mandela.
As far as he's concerned, it's cost-free compassion. Cost-free for him, that is.
While he's coming over all Bob Geldof, perhaps he'd like to tell us how much of
his own money he's giving to Africa?
