UK calls for urgent aid rule changes.

[Workingman]

What?

These people are in desperate need. We have the resources - use them.

Sod the OECD and UN rules, these are our people, British passport holders. ~ Go in first and help them, then argue the legalities.

[cromwell]

Yes. Tbh the UN is a waste of space.

[Suff]

Yep we have become such a bunch of compliant wusses haven't we....

Time for a change.

[TheOstrich]

Fully agree. The devastation is now and the need is immediate, so get to it, and argue the rules later. What would they do anyway, wave a yellow card at us?

One thing I haven't liked about the "relief effort" concerns the evacuation of foreign nationals. It seems many countries were employing an "our citizens only" policy in airlifting out refugees. I bet they'd be the first to complain if we implemented that policy in return ....
