Support from where?
it's an internal policy decision of the South African government. as such it's nowt to do with us.
You can bet that if the UK Government had a similar "internal policy" that the World and his dog would be screaming blue murder.
True Togo, but there's a subtle difference here though, isn't there!

Perhaps we could start by removing all aid and impose sanctions?
Wouldn't that also hit the white farmers?
just the next phase in the descent to Rhodesian levels.
Déjà vu.
as they move towards a new apartheid many will wish they kept the old one.
I wonder if the EUSSR will invite all the dispossessed farmers with open arms?
they'll probably just send them a load of bangers to do nowt like they do with the firesides.

Do you think the white farmers are on the receiving end of any aid we give these corrupt leaders?
It isn't "strictly" true that there is no support or concern for the white farmers. At least Trump has had the guts to comment and ask the question. Although, critics cried “racist” when Trump tweeted that he had told Secretary of State Mike Pompeo “to closely study the South Africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers.”
Yep, you read that right.....when Trump queried the targeting of white farmers by black "activists", He became the racist. Funny old World.
Well, he would ... wouldn't he. He's Trump. Funny this world ain't.
The thing is,if and when South Africa becomes a basket case,guess where everyone and his dog is going to head......
AOG, Have you any proof or a link about how the aid is distributed?
AOG, did you know about this?

Iran, Iraq, Israel, Burma, Turkey...............

Iterventions and criticisms.

Spare us.
Those measures were taken in 2013 and implemented in 2015 to combat corruption in all the African countries that we were stupidly sending aid to as direct cash payments. Bet you can't guess what was happening to the cash. Now all aid is allocated for identifiable "projects" although still liable to be syphoned off by corrupt "officials". Perhaps that is why they feel the need to seize the farms. Now that the easy cash has dried up they don't know where the next Mercedes is coming from. Of course when starvation takes a hold more aid will be required. What a jolly wheeze.
