Just a quick thought - I heard Boris Johnson on the wireless earlier (BBC R4, any questions) talking about aid in the way the Bob Geldof wants it done, and he quoted:
“Aid is poor people in rich countries giving to rich people in poor countries.”

Very, very true. And it reminded me of a comment I read a couple of months ago with regard to Mugabe engineering a mass genocide of his own people; Nelson Mandela’s silence is deafening
