Well at least India is spending.
The Hindu : Front Page : Navy plans to acquire multi-role fighter aircraft
They certainly do have big plans and I guess will make good allies as they have in the past.
Is this the same India that our beloved, unelected (er unelectable) leader is sending about £850 million to, which is "earmarked" for the schools over there.
Education, education, education.......
Obviously I'm missing something or need to see a man in a white coat.
I must do because I can't stop thinking about giving millions to Brussels, lots of our pounds to immigrants to leave our shores etc etc etc as well.
They're coming to take me away ha ha, they're coming to take me away ha ha ho ho hee hee......

As the UK's ability to punch above its weight is increasingly cost prohibitive, what better way to influence world events than to have a (somewhat friendly) former colony assist the UK's interests?
Would make sense to pin UK's waning star to the Indian ascending star. Better that than China methinks.

And quite right too. This country is deserved of our aid and we should be eternally grateful to India.
Remember that we also provide aid to the United States, So why not India?

Well the people to be educated are the simplest rural peoples known as 'tribals' and the urban poor. The chances of anything like £850mill reaching the schools they attend is nil - it will be siphoned off as everything else does in this country.
The view of the Indian intelligentsia is that this aid is a joke gesture from an over PC country who has more need of the money than India does.
Oh well off to admire the Flankers on QRA here at Pune.
