Rough Guide to a Better World

It's getting good reviews as a publication on how to be involved in development issues -even seen American sites give it good reviews. It's availabel to download free and the British government has produced it ...
Why? In their own words: "Public opinion research tell us that lots of people are concerned about poverty, but that they aren't sure what positive action they can take. Many in the UK also feel powerless in the face of the negative images and stories about the developing world carried by television and newspapers. We have worked with Rough Guides to publish Better World to encourage people to become actively engaged in fighting poverty. Better World explains the challenges, the Millennium Development Goals and highlights progress that has already been made."

 I got a response from my MP which got me kind of mad. You'll see why as I reproduce it here. Apologies for the strange changes in types...
