Brown pledges £50 MILLION to China

Can't find link, but bascially Gordon Brown has given the Chinese Government £50 MILLION pounds of OUR money. They make more money than us yet we're giving them money??? They can afford Nuclear Weapons have a army over a million strong yet we give them money?

We have got to be the biggest pushovers in the world.

Brown is the world's cash mashine.

Or we could use it to compensate terminally injured soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan who seem to be getting pathetic rates of compensation.

why exactly is giving them money? or is it a random gesture?
