I heard about this.
The problem is that Tony Blair wants to replace the House of Lords with a Supreme full of his Cronies so it is unlikely many new lords will be made until he forces through his own plans for his Socialist Utopia.
The way I see it England has had this system for centuries and if we a re to change it then we should do it with a Prime Minister that people actually trust and we should have a referendum to decide.
Mostly self-inflicted - see Zimbabwe, Angola, Rwanda, etc.
There is a story about the "Mighty Congo" floating about the net, and man-made is right.
Give the African citizen two things - free enterprise and private property. Give them that and poverty will start to go away. There are millions who want to be entrepreneurs, gain self-sufficiency and make money.
In the summer of 2002, eco-fascists met in South Africa to push the UN’s “Sustainable Development,” more commonly known as global property theft. While eating imported bacon and eggs, steak, lobster and champagne in front of starving African children, Third World citizens had an Alka Seltzer moment.
Third World citizens pounded the table and issued their Declaration of Independence. The first sentence is: “We are people, too.” They demanded self-determination, free enterprise, clean drinking water and plentiful food that American ideas and technology can give them.
Who can forget about Africa exspecially at this time of year. They are holding the Dakar Rally, and Robby Gordon is the current leader after 4 stages, with 2 stage wins!

Simple question-
WHY is Africa so poor?
Isn't it the richest continent in terms of natural resources?
I'm SO SICK of "gimme, gimme, gimme."
