"Where is your humanity" My humanity is with children in the UK who are cold in Winter, starving throughout the year with inadequate clothing and possibly abused. My humanity is with the aged who during Winter months have to choose between 'Heat or Eat' and my humanity is with the 1,000's of homeless in the UK who are trapped in a vicious circle of not being able to get a job without a home and vice versa. Funding in the UK for the above is woefully inadequate yet year on year the UK Government and various UK based charities manage to send billions overseas. I am not saying we shouldn't provide overseas humanitarian aid, but surely we should look after our own first. |
