Every single day, 30,000 children die, needlessly, of extreme poverty.

Today Live 8 UK aired. Hundreds of thousands of people watched performers around the world raise awareness of their Cause, and put pressure on the world leaders at the G8 Summit next week.

Remember - Live 8 does not want your money. All it wants is your name. You can sign the live 8 online petiton Here.

Send a message to the 8 world leaders meeting next week - that no longer will we allow where you are born to determine your right to life.

No longer will we force millions of people to live on less than one dollar a day so the goverment can pay our over the top intrest rates from loans they've payed off ten times over by now.

Know this - For evrey pound we give in Aid to these countries, they pay fifteen back in intrest. And they call it Aid; A donation made in kind spirit. no.gif

And once you have put your name on the Live 8 list, thank your god, whoever that might be, that by quirk of fate you were born here, and not there.

Sign the Live 8 list today - You can make a difference.

They don't want my money... but they want my voice? blink.gif Well they are not going to get it. Look at all the corruption in Africa right now... just yesterday they charged the ex-president with corruption and he can't be the only one. I wouldn't let my voice be part of this "help".

Yeah! Give your support to corruption! thumbsup.gif

African corruption is a crime against humanity

Just a small taste. Why give money or your voice to people that will only keep it for themselves or pass it on to friends instead of helping?
