...and on top of what you are saying, we have the following and with respect to the usual suspects on here who are quick to suspect that all bad news only comes from the Daily Mail, It is from the Sun:




And for those in denial or who cannot be bothered to read the link this is the crucial bit:


"Somali gangs are major players in the trade of illegal drugs in Britain's big cities and have become ruthless money-making outfits, kicking out established gangs by being prepared to resort to the most extreme violence.

They represent another side of immigration - an influx importing the hard mentality of the war zone they left behind and using it to take advantage of our liberal Western society.

To them, Britain's streets are a soft, ripe-for-the-plucking goldmine of illegal cash.

Official figures show 101,000 Somalis here but the true number is believed to be more like 250,000. Many of them are here illegally."

It is of course the 'British' way to only see good in people and to want to help, but when the hand is constantly bitten, it must be time to consider the facts and debate certain things without the fear of being branded racist.

Is this another place where aid sent doesnt get delivered to those that need it? People starve as criminals line their pockets ..... I think aid should go through the UN or some such,with stringent controls over who stores and transports and then distributes ..as it seems SO MUCH aid goes astray in the process .... sarah is !furious!

Yes, sorry, was not hijacking your thread, realised that I did not really answer what you had posted.

Not sure that holding back aid would have any effect on the problems you mentioned or help with getting that couple released. The greater problem now appears that we have a huge number of people living here for whom life has always been cheap and for whom a propensity to sickening violence is just a way of life.

I think the crucial line from the article I posted is:

"an influx importing the hard mentality of the war zone they left behind and using it to take advantage of our liberal Western society.'

and sooner or later all those who take a liberal attitude and refuse to accept that there is a big problem here will get bitten on the arse.

I was being more generalistic,my apologies- stopping aid wont see many criminals starve.. I dont see why that would stop hostage taking ?
