So right - fed up with our politicians but you can see that some are money grabbing, and lying /.//////
but they can't change the goal posts like the Goan ones, personally would let ALL the Gurkas in to the UK, and send all the illegals back on the next flight. We are not a charity. We welcomed Churchill and he has given us the two fingers and Vaz does not even reply to our emails for help.;:curse::banghead::banghead:

Did I read a different article? I read that it was NOT tourism spreading Aids but migrant labour.

No you read the same article but if you read it the tourist was first blamed for the increase of AID/HIV until this organisation did the statistics.Please read it again




Speaking to reporters earlier Pradip Padwal, project director at GSACS, said that Goa clocked nearly three cases a day of people being infected with AIDS. Padwal maintained that tourism was responsible for the rise in HIV/AIDS cases.

noni,
your link took me to some dreadful rag obsessed by the Beckhams, but looking further this seems to be about Trinidad & Tobago, and something called the Trinity Cross - a name which could quite reasonably upset non-christians.

... or have I got the wrong end of the stick?
... or has the Daily Mail blown up a non-story out of all proportion?

The Daily Mail is obsessed by the Beckhams, the Linekars, Jordan et al and does get all stories out of proportion unless it is anything to do with real problems. i.e. the ones in which we are inolved.
Have sent them links to stories, emails etc and have not heard a word back from them and nothing in their so called newspaper.

I can't stand the daily mail - it pretends to be respectable & it's worse than the bl**dy Sun - best buy that instead, at least it doesn't pretend to be anything other than the rag it is! Still like the Times on a Saturday & Sunday though - read it Mon, Tues & Weds evening - good value!

Have a happy weekend
