After London got bombed everyone forgot about the G8 and everything.

Seems that Live 8 did nothing after all...

He's got a personal fortune of £21m or something hasn't he?

On a related note, anyone remember Sail 8? Geldoff's "Armada" of ships going to pick up protestors from France? Well, they tried it: Only 6 or 8 (can't remember which) ships actually bothered to make the crossing and arrived to find no protestors to pick up.

That made me smile.

Well, Geldoff's coffers are known to be swollen as a result of Live8, so he won't be experiencing much poverty for his remaining days.

A winner every time.

Just thought I'd add to this post whilst it's here.

So, Live8 2005.

Makepovertyhistory.

This was meant to be the ultimate erasure of poverty throughout the world.

Just flicked on the news, there are still reports of famine/poverty in Africa, there is no sign of Geldoff or Bono to say anything.

All that happened was a concert which everyone relished for a day, the G8 came past, then.....nothing.

Wage war with what? Sticks and rocks? :p

I just had a funny thought, i dont know why.
Imagine if in 30 years these 18 countries collect together and wage war on us because we put them in debt in the first place and then enslaved us and put us in to poverty as they grow into the new super powers.

Not really funny. but its an interesting read i guess.
