Dan Hannan ~ How the EU pays to keep Africa in Poverty

Daniel Hannan addressing the European Parliament plenary session in Strasbourg on 13th June 2013.

Africa is a good example of Western double standards. The West is always ready to export democracy and remove "dictators" from power when a nation is sitting on natural resources. This is not the case when Western corporations are already extracting natural resources with the help of a corrupt dictator or a political party.
The people in the West pay for all of these activities but all profits are private. The media looks the other way, because the real criminals (corruptors) own the mass media.
