I am
not a great believer in the Opening Ceremony of any Olympic Games as they are
just propaganda for the Country hosting the event. This year in Sochi was no
different to London Olympics both left out important parts of the history and
twisted facts to suit the organiser? Yet
I did watch parts of the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics and was
impressed it was as good as the London Olympics if not better.
It
came as no surprise though that the Media was doing their best to criticise the
event, if you looked at the DM today you would have thought the whole place was
falling down, yet yesterday morning on Radio 4 athletes were being interviewed
and they said the facilities were tremendous. The latter do not have an agenda
so I would rather think they are being truthful.
The
Pink Mafia and their followers were out in force trying their best to ruin the
event for everyone including Gay Athletes and Officials. They must have been
really upset when part of the displayed showed couples (men marrying women what
an innovation) getting married and then pushing prams together promoting
marriage and having children in marriage. This was a rather unique idea maybe
it will catch on in GB
Mind
you there was one article which suggested the event was financed by Corrupt money and it even suggested Mafia money was used, this I believe is not so far fetched.
THE
BILLIONS HANDED OUT BY BRITAIN TO HELP FLOOD VICTIMS ABROAD
Billions
of pounds of taxpayers’ money has poured abroad to help those affected by
flooding.
The
Government has set up the International Climate Fund, which will give
£3.87billion over five years to help developing countries ‘mitigate and adapt
to climate change’.
In
contrast, dredging the Somerset Levels would cost £4.5million.
Britain
has given nearly £1.2million to the World Bank’s flood prevention and control
scheme, and spent £941,000 on its ‘site preservation’ work.British taxpayers
contributed a further £986,000 on protecting the biosphere in developing
countries.
A
further £115million has been spent on preventing floods and other disasters in
developing countries. The Government has also donated millions for disaster
recovery following particular floods abroad, including £42.5million to aid
agencies in Pakistan following floods in 2011.
The
Department for International Development earmarked £75million for the
Bangladesh climate change programme in 2008.
When
Mozambique was hit by floods in 2000, the Labour government gave £12million
extra in aid and dispatched Royal Navy Sea-King helicopters to deliver aid in
relief camps.
A
C-17 military plane was sent to Colombia when it was hit by floods in 2011, carrying
400 aid boxes.
The
International Climate Fund has spent nearly £80million helping Indonesia, Ghana
and others tackle deforestation problems.
It
has also sent £4.3million to countries such as Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique and
Niger to help them study weather forecasts better and adapt to the impacts of
climate change.
