Sir - How comforting it must be for people struggling in these times to read, that the head of the foreign aid office was paid a "bonus " of between £15-20,000, on top of his £165,000 wages for meeting the target to spend billions abroad.

He gave away £1billion alone in 8 weeks at the end of 2013. Its so lovely to see that our Government does all it can to give this money away;
