SIR – Even though the UK politicians continuously fail to look after our own vulnerable pensioners, I am astounded that Britain is to spend £825 million over the next three years in aid to India.
While I am deeply saddened by the plight of the impoverished millions in India, we see an Indian nation that has spent billions on nuclear developments, billions on space travel and has a Bollywood film industry creating millionaires weekly. Our pensioners get poorer by the week.
