I agree with you entirely. Although I accept that people in third world countries do not always have much of a life, I feel that too often they get charity donations to the detriment of people in the UK. We must look after our own people as well as those from other countries. There is a great deal of poverty in the UK, especially where children are concerned. Apart from world `disasters`, I now only give money to charities that use it for the UK.

Ok... Firstly, are you actually giving money to your local community? If so, then good. But if you're not, then you shouldn't complain about others giving their money to overseas charities.

I've lived in third world countries and I can tell you first hand that the people there need more help than the people of the UK do because nobody there is willing to help them. Poor people in the third world dont get any support whatsoever from the government, and they literally have to fend for themselves.
