Flight

Did anyone see this yesterday evening?

Really quite moving. Having watched this programme and seeing how brave this little girl was and her mother too, I was taken aback by just how shallow the world is becoming when you have people going through this distress and pain for years.

Just amazing fortitude, tried to find out how she's doing - that was a year ago

A thousand more like her who aren't so lucky

Whilst I do support helping people out in these circumstances, I do believe that the cost should be covered by either insurance or, if that isn't an option, the government of the home country. It's not as if we don't hand over pallets full of cash year after year to a large number of "Third World" countries. Some of which are just waiting in the long grass to tear the UK to shreds. IMHO.

The money was from the charity, set up by Mrs Makoni !

I don't think we've sent pallet loads of cash to Zimbabwe in recent years either
