Britain pledges support for Yemen Foreign Secretary William Hague has pledged international support for Yemen to help the troubled country tackle a rising Islamic terrorism threat. Mr Hague co-chaired a fringe meeting at the UN General Assembly on Friday aimed at preventing the collapse of the poverty-stricken Middle Eastern state. Ministers from 22 nations as well as officials from the UN, EU, Gulf Co-operation Council, Arab League, IMF and the World Bank called for the creation of a development fund for Yemen and better co-ordination of foreign aid. They also backed an International Monetary Fund scheme to restructure Yemen's economy. Speaking after the meeting, Mr Hague said: "(The) meeting showed the breadth and depth of international commitment to help address the challenges Yemen faces. "The Friends of Yemen agreed targeted measures which demonstrate that we support the Government of Yemen and its people in pursuit of stability, security and sustainable development. "I strongly welcome the offer of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to host another meeting to review progress in Riyadh in early 2011." link http://www.southportvisiter.co.uk/southport-news/southport-breaking-news/2010/09/25/britain-pledges-support-for-yemen-101022-27340095/ |

I'm sick of my country helping others prevent collapse when our walls are caving in all around me! I saw on sky news this morning that the people in charge of iraq's main bank, the one where all our money is sent to help there recovery have been secretly buying up multi million pound villa's in dubai for iraq's mps to live in! So not only are we being short changed by our own mps and banks but now another country is raiding our pockets too. |

The world is structured so that responsible people that build decent and developed societies have to work for their entire lives to give money to those that are lazy and violent bullies. |
