I don't think that's true at all. I think the majority of the UK see a space program as a fairly useless endeavour - big boys playing with their toys.

The UK does certainly see sending millions of pounds overseas in foreign aid, as a bad idea.

And sorry again for my original copy&paste gone wrong. I copied the wrong part of the article which mentioned remittances rather than foreign aid.

I agree and so does the finance minister and now president of India. He calls it "peanuts" compared to the Indian economy. I should say they should use the aid for Scotland or other god forsaken places in UK. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/441263/India-sends-a-spa...
