The media need to start asking serious questions about Green MP Benjamin Doyle and his “alternate” social media account “BibleBeltBussy” - what that really means and his posts - some of which have apparently been deleted. If it were any MP from a government party the media would’ve already headlined it.
The silence from the Green Party leadership amongst the swirling allegations and innuendo online is deafening.
This is the guy who wants to provide puberty blockers on demand and surgery for children.
Doyle has been placed in Parliament to sabotage ethical beliefs our society stands for.
@GavinBoby@AngiesSlumTowns@AutumnAcer Alright I get it, I was more focused on how do you get more people to hear of what you do, rather than what the YouTuber who get out of it
@AngiesSlumTowns@GavinBoby@AutumnAcer I suppose I was being optimistic. I'd like to think if he was championed more he'd get more support. I know I would of jumped on early
We shouldn't just slash foreign aid, we should scrap it altogether. 50% is not enough - everything should go.
Then, if MPs want to approve specific projects? They should put their name to it. Solar panels in Pakistan or shrimp studies in Bangladesh? They should have the courage to personally sanction it.
Not delegating power to some nonsense department/quango, AGAIN. MPs should take responsibility for how taxpayer money is spent.
Let their constituents decide if that is a wise use of funds...
Is Britain really such a utopia where we can afford to splash millions and millions on green enterprises in India? A gender disinformation conference in Kenya? Mental health research in Colombia? Inclusion in the Congo?
Sorry - I just don't care. It's not our problem.
That British taxpayer money needs to be spent in Britain, on British people.
We're spending £133 million on aid in Pakistan this year.
WHY?! What are we getting for it? The honest answer?
Sod all.
We're borrowing money to hand it away. It is BONKERS.
Foreign aid was potentially once a noble idea, that has now been completely distorted out of any reality by virtue-signalling politicians who want to appear kind at their various cocktail parties.
WHO CARES.
Scrap the whole thing.
I say spend that money in Britain, on British people.
