If developed nations don’t step in to help the continent now, the whole world will pay the price, says Guardian economics editor Larry Elliott

Fifteen years ago a group of rich countries gathered for its annual get-together at the Gleneagles hotel in Perthshire, Scotland. A number of African leaders were invited to the summit, from which a deal emerged: the west’s major powers would provide debt relief and aid in return for cleaner and better governance.

We got our own shit going on over here thanks.

They'll get fuck all...........

Ghana is doing fine so far without help from anyone . NHS is working hard to save lives . Africa will be this than any continent. Stay home and save lives .

How tf is the west gonna hell Africa when they’re stifling too like 🧐🤨🤨🤨

great idea but have you seen the shitshow on our own doorstep (UK/EU) and you think this lot are competent enough to also help Africa?! frankly you are better off without us right now Africa!!!

Africa is perfectly fine worry about everyone else

Buddy the West needs to care for its own first before they help out everyone else. Here in the States we have the worst healthcare system, can't treat our own bc we can't afford basic treatments, no room in our hospitals. Fuck that.

The west needs to stay it's diseased ridden self far away from Africa.

Is the west handling it well? Don’t drag Africa Larry

Not that deep, for the rich world. Latest aid call is for 100Bn. Ireland (pop 4.5m) will spend 30bn on itself.

SORRY! We’re all out.

If only Larry Elliott can catch the virus 😔

The west has its own problems at the moment.

Utter bilge. No we must not.

You must think the west has a blank check policy. I’m sure I could find an article from your news outlet that has BASHED the “West” in the past for its efforts in other countries. The “West’s” involvement in other states is always bad. Hypocrite!

(White) guilt is the new religion pushed by Jews onto marginalized liberals.

What about Wakanda?

Fuck Africa not our problem.

Why are Africans so incompetent? Couldn’t be related to their abysmal IQs.

White people should stay 100% out of Africa. No help, no intervention.

Can’t Wakandans figure it out on their own? They’re more intelligent and advanced than their European counterparts.

Africa doesn't want anyones help or advice. They are mostly run by Dictators who just want MONEY. Nothing more nothing less. Why give them anything? The World should get out of Africa and Stop sponsoring Dictators.

No, that would be colonialism. Sorry

More reaching and grabbing for what’s not yours still.

Why should we help them? I thought they were better than us white people.

Colonizers need to let Africa build their Wakanda.

Why do you think Africa can't handle it themselves? Racist?

Let's look after ourselves for once. In the west we're constantly told to not have children coz 'muh overpopulation' but send billions in aid so they breed like proverbial rabbits. Let's do the right thing & stay out of 3rd world affairs, including ceasing of aid.

Dig deep! Why the fuck is it our responsibility?

I dont care if africa goes fucking extinct. Not my tribe, not my problem. Much more concerned about turds of african descent in my country and the threat they pose to my tribe, to my family, to my race.

They hate white people, so they better take care of themselves

Can these apes do anything for themselves

Don't care!

How about we fix our own problems first? Pouring all of our resources into trying to fix the third world is destroying the first world. White shitlibs are the worst people on earth!... well second worst. You know (((who))) is the worst!!!

The ChinaCoronaVirus is the fault of the CCP Let them aid the 3rd world

no

They're overpopulated. Let nature take its course.

But, Wakanda forever ?

Sorry. I've heard repeatedly the West helping Africa is white supremacy. They are strong and can figure it out themselves.

Why is it our responsibility to take care of an entire continent and race of people? They are having a baby boom because we are subsidizing them. It all has to stop.

Africa is now China’s problem.

Africa needs population control. If they aren't capable of managing themselves, their population needs to be reduced until the can handle the numbers, instead of becoming half the world's population by 2100. Stop subsidizing Africa. CoronaCrisisCharity

Don't tell David Lammy this.

NO THANK YOU. YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN!

damn..i’m saving my last few grand on you know, what’s it. darn it!

Why must the west dig deep. Africans dont need us, they invented everythang

I won't donate or pay a dime for them. We are not responsible for others, especially for those who would see us gone from the face of this earth.

why bother? serious question.

Si precisamente África no va a tener tanto problema.

We don't have enough resources to treat our own sick people. Sorry, time for Africa to put on its big boy pants and take care of itself.

No

Ask Bono !!

It would be white supremacy if we would help ! Let god sort them out.

Wouldn't it be terribly white supremacist to assume that Africans can't deal with this without white people helping them out?

Wait isn't this similar to colonialism? No no, we can't go into Africa guys.

Lol... But why can't they help themselves? Why can't they build a 1st world?

WHY?!

Nah.

I think the “white saviour” trope is racist. So, no.

Drop the white saviour complex. Africans are perfectly capable of handling their own affairs.

🤫....

They are not our responsibility, they want our help after constantly blaming us for all their problems and poor living conditions?

Why should white people always come running to help Africa?

Africa absolutely hates the west, so no.

Africa for Africans, they must to resolve this problem by themselves

Better hurry up and send back all the doctors and scientists from Africa who've flooded Europe.

No.

Id rather not risk any racism

You are absolutely right. BLACK PEOPLE ATTENTION - return to your ancestral homelands forthwith, Africa needs you...

Got our own problems. Pass

I ain’t saving Africa.

I really don't care.

Implying that we are superior?

Africa should ask China to help. The West is tapped out.

You just admitted africans inferiority.

The West must make the greatest sacrifice - send back the valuable human resources that refugees brought and let go of our greatest strength - diversity.

Nope, not our problem.

This is racism White racism

No, Africa doesn't want us and we don't want them. Let them figure it out on their own or else people will cry that it's colonialism

I thought Africa was full of doctors and engineers

The White man is once again both oppresor and saviour, depending on the political expediency. How I loathe these guardianista types.

Isn’t the white saviour thing racist?

Extremely racist and neocolonial take here

africa is overpopulated as it is..I'm hoping Covid-19 will kick some serious ass there and the mid-east 👍

Sorry, it's 'white supremacy' to believe that Africans need white people to aid them.

They're on their own

No. The west has helped them out enough.

Why? Let China help them.

But they wuz kangz. They can figure it out.

This might help with the population explosion coming in Africa, let nature do it's correction.

Bob Geldof and Bono should go to Africa, and offer their assistance.

Nope we need to look after ourselves first & then (& only then) can we consider helping anyone else

We should remigrate all of the engineers and scientists from Africa that have come to White countries so that they can help their mother continent... Oh wait, that's not really what we got.

Oh well. It is none of our affair.

We should encourage the Africans in the western world to return to their brethren and share the knowledge they have acquired from the new world.

'Blacks need whites to save them.' So the Guardian is a WHITE SUPREMACIST news agency now?

No

Uuummm no!

No, send the so-called 'migrants' and 'refugees' back aren't they all doctors and engineers? Let them fix Africa!

fuck africa, the west needs to focus on saving itself, why is it our responsibility to save africa? i thought the idea of the 'white savior' was a racist archetype? shouldn't we avoid that? shouldn't we let them handle their own situations or are you saying blacks can't do that?

Why don't the African doctors that came to Europe go back there and defuse the situation?

It's just the flu bro

How is that our responsibility? They are overpopulated due to their own stupidity, hopefully this will be a learning experience for them.

Africa's not running out of blapipo anytime soon.

There they go again. Asking those awful white racist for help.

I think we need to take care of UK first luv

Lol. No.

White people, care for your own and don't help the non-whites. They hate you but they want to destroy you and take your things.

It's it racist to assume Africans are incapable of helping themselves? Isn't it racist to say that Africans need White people's (the West's) help?

The West? Why not Asia? Or the Middle east? Or themselves?

Africa is full of future scientists and doctors. I've been reading that for the past ten years as a reason to let them in to European countries. They should be fine on their own then.

Why must the west help if you sold your soul to China. Ask China and leave the west for once. Over a month or two youl be back bashing the west.

I thought black people were the smart ones and us whites were dumbasses. I get that from commercials.

Africa can use a good culling

Pass

Africa has had billions and billions from developed democracy's. About time those billions appeared form their corrupt regimes.

Has our helping of africa ever been a net positive?

Why is it always the west helping them?! We’ve been feeding their starving children for years!! They can’t help themselves yet hate whites. Why should we help? They’re slaughtering white farmers! Let them finally learn to take care of themselves.

Once in a lifetime we must remain deaf to this alert.

No, thanks. Africans living among Europeans direct ungrateful, hateful and racist tirades at Europeans. Europeans living among Africans are being butchered by Africans. I.e South Africa.

There’s nobody in Africa. They are all in Europe or English Channel.

Let nature take its course.

nah

No. No, I don't think I will.

Please export your operations and staff to Africa. And stay there.

Nope. David Lammy MP said that helping Africa was a White Saviour act. Africa has had how many billions aid over the years? Has it made any difference? Enough is enough. Try contacting Junkie Geldof, Bono & Lily Allen, I'm sure they care.....

Fuck them they don't bring anything to the table there are a parasitic race that should be removed they do nothing but live off the white man

Apparently DavidLammy objects to white saviours. Happy for our money and expertise to stay in house.

No we must end the imperialism and colonialism and let them flourish beautifully, as we all know they would, if the big bad white man would just leave them alone.

I'm pretty sure we have our own problems.

Anti white sentiment has never been higher in africa so why ? Why must the west continue to support Africa ?

Africa is not struggling like Italy and some other European nations or the USA. So why this tweet?

Woobɔdam Sia it’s only a matter of time

No.

The 'band aid' mentality which has seen 30 years of non stop aid and money going their way. yeah lets keep sending money that is pocketed by the corrupt leaders .

Quit helping Africa. The more we help them, the more low IQ degenerates they produce who end up starving and/or raping and then get shipped to white countries to be taken care of. Quit building them Wells, quit feeding them.

Help yourselves

Errr...no. DavidLammy said they don't need any more WHITE SAVIOURS! Besides...we've been digging deep for decades now and they are still in the same piss poor situation. It's high time they start helping themselves!

Africa can worry about Africans. Tired of babysitting cultures who can’t take care of themselves

Why would it be up to the west ? On one hand people call the western world imperialist/colonialist on the other they expect us to give 'aid' & take in 'refugees really economic migrants at best. Why is it our responsibility? To take care of the whole world ? When we are hated

Nah not our problem

Lol. No

DooleyKate They have had enough of taxpayers money time to stop all foreign aid now especially to Africa yemen Syria and Pakistan.

No. The west must STOP digging before it's too late.

You steal all of Africas resources and are in bed with their puppet political leaders then push a racist article that speaks to your stereotypical view of Africans as inferior. White supremacy is the reason Africa is the way she is...

I agree, lets send back all the 'doctors' and 'scientsist' they have been sending us for years. Surely they'd get off their welfare leeching asses to save their home continent, right?

I'm not worried. Surely Black Panther and his crew will solve it with their advanced technology.

All the billions probably trillions by now that have been poured into Africa, and they still can't even wipe their own arses. Sod em, cut of all aid and leave them to their fate.

Africa can't do anything on its own, apart from breeding like rabbits.

Fuck no

Not today thank you. White savours is not something the Guardian should be advocating. Where have you're socialist, left wing minority principles gone. Shocking hypocrisy.

Sorry but ever since DavidLammy highlighted the concept of 'white saviours' I won't give to charities helping Africa so as not to offend them.

Whose pockets. Do tell. The UK must save the world. The guardian.... extreme Socialist bog roll.

Sorry can't give you a penny coz' David Lammy told me not too. I wonder how many £millions he has stopped being sent to Africa and how many died coz' of him?

My White privileged saviour self says NO!!!!!

We've sent this hell hole Billions in Foreign aid, perhaps do some actually work and find out where it's gone!! Go on off you go fools.

CharitySoWhite WhiteSaviourMentality No. No more. They're adults too, it's over to Black and Brown people now.

We're kind of busy dealing with our own problems right now. Might be time for Africans to grow up and take responsibility for their own well being. I'm sure if we develop a vaccine, we'll share it with them, but we don't really have much help to spare for the perpetually needy.

shame we keep taking all their doctors and scientists, they'd have the means to solve it if not for us. but then again they're all high IQ, productive doctors so they'll be fine I'm sure.

Don’t care 🤷‍♀️

Best left to sort it out themselves. That way no white guilty repercussions.

Once bitten twice shy.

The Western media was itching to start on Africa , this media house and the author are simply racist bigots and should be treated with the contempt they deserve. The article stinks of rent seeking politics, trash!

They were & are doing better w/o European help on CV-19. Europeans have more cases. After all, all the cases that entered Africa were non-black outsiders. Leave Africa alone. You just wants to go & infest them with fake vaccinations, (depo shots) depopulation & neo-colonization.

The West must look after itself first.

On top of everything happening, this is even more upsetting. Those non-Africans are dying in thousands every 24 hrs ! But someone sat down and thought Africans aren't dealing ? Are they themselves dealing ? Even the guts to say we Africans will reimport the virus ? To them

F U C K Africa

This virus has brought Europe and the so called 'super powers'on their knees!it's now evident there is no major difference between Africa & them.... our health systems are arguably the same & we're all vulnerable!be humble.

Why is that?

The West can’t even beat the virus. The numbers keep spiking. Twats everywhere.

lol, no

The west? They already overpopulate and send all their extra people to Europe to get welfare. F'em I say. They can get help from China where the virus came from if they can but the /west/? You have to be high.

What a shame

It’s ok it’s ok they still have the bread basket Rhodesia 👍🏻

I mean, really.

What is more pressing is the fear of an economic break down... Zambia has not closed all it boarders and they delayed to put some important restrictions for fear of losing out in terms of the economy

lol no

The West is the hardest hit part of the world. How about we take care of ourselves first?

6 Marshall plans

Allow me to assure you Africa will be just fine.

(((Elliott)))

Oh please stop your BS European nations are collapsing under this disease and in the US it is getting to that point. Sweep your own door step and keep your filthy paws off Africa.

Hear, hear. When do we begin the grand containment, Larry?

Paternalism is racism.

Nope.

Wait, diversity isn’t their greatest strength?

Meanwhile the US and western countries are still struggling. You guys need to stop dragging Africa with all this negativity.

Ain't a damn thing wrong with Africa, these are lies.

Sorry but I refuse to help anywhere involved in actively genociding my people

Whoa! Hey guardian cool it with this soft shoed bigotry! These Africans dont need whiteys help to solve their problem! Your racism in assuming that they need help is really telling. How dare you!!!

Can the left please give us some consistent guidelines?

Lol it's overpopulated anyway

Did i mention weve been fight tropical diseases for decades? Malaria, even ebola...which the West completely ignored but mnged to find a cure for soon as a US citizen caught it, wow. One thing is for sure, these flus never start from Africa so u guys need to look at yourselves

Love to, but don't want to be accused of being a 'white saviour' again.

Please save yourselves first. Have yoy seen Italy, Spain and France? The US isnt any better. Dont worry abt Africa. We’re used to germs. Isnt that how u depict us in your documentaries? As dirty and poor? We’ll be jst fine with a young, non smokin gen under this tropical climate

David Lammy won't allow it. He wants them to sort stuff on their own otherwise it's racist.

Sorry I'll not be donating because I'm fed up being abused by DavidLammy when I did so previously. 🙄

I don't think they need any white saviours

Let me kindly remind everyone that the West has been injecting money into Africa for years and years with the express purpose of convincing them that all their food, clean water and medical problems will be solved if they legalize abortion.

Hahahahahahaha

You see : I want to help non whites and poorer nations too but when whites are being relentlessly attacked 'white supremacy' 'white guilt' 'white privilege' can you all just shut up after we all get through together Whites and non whites alike Drop the anti-white attitude

Colonial virus aka Coronavirus 👁

Absolutely terrifying how developing countries will manage, refugee camps don’t stand a chance... At a loss..

But that would be cultural colonialism.

Uhmmm... excuse me but we (Africans) aren't the ones with tens of thousands of infected people. that's the west that you speak so fondly of.

Nah they're good

The only thing Africa Can beat is its children

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t

No we are not interested.

I keep hearing that Europe was built by Africans. I'm sure they will figure it out over there as well

Let Africa fend for itself for god's sake..

Try saving Europe & America show us the poor white folks suffering from vivid... Africa is 1.3 billion people only has about 1400 cases 💁🏿‍♀️ scattered here & there

Sorry, but david lammy would accuse us of being white saviours, so they're gonna have to sort it out for themselves

Africa is the least Affected continent on the Globe, but the Guradian & all the ignoramuses cannot help themselves wit the old age narrative of disease war & poverty when reporting on Africa , the Geopolitical north is burning with Covid 19 focus there ! Reality is staring U

I’m sure they’ll figure it out. I’ve heard that they have massive natural resources.

No thanks

Africa is good. She doesn’t need the medical version of ‘economic hitmen’. Stay in Europe. Thank you.

They hate us............we have been putting our hands in our pockets for decades.............they still hate us.........PISS OFF.

Africa doesn't need white saviours.

Evil whitey?

ask China. East, not west.

Dig deep? For all the bodies?

We can send them teachers to teach them., books and paper and pencils to help them learn. Beyond trying to help the populace become more educated we shouldn’t help them to far beyond that. After all, we’re all equal and thus means they’ll have no issue becoming doctors.

They asked for this immediately after they killed/ forced out the European Farmers.

Africa can't do anything without the West's help. Time for them to figure it out on their own.

'White evil westerner, give us your money or we will die. Stop being racist.'

The baby rapists can drown in their own fluids for all I care

No.

Africa can't beat anything on it's own. How is this any different? And how much aid would you like to go to the corrupt leaders or world officials that would oversee it. This won't fix or change anything. piss off

Let Africa solve its own problems.

Hard pass. West doesn't need to do anything, except help their own people. STHU days of white guilt are over.

Wait - isn't Africa committing genocide against anyone who is white? But you want western countries to help?

They have the least amount of corona in the world...

White Saviour Complex much?

nope

Nope, Hispanics have no obligation to help blacks, let all those 'walk away' Hotep thugs help them

Interesting to see that the bigotry of low expectations has returned. I thought Africa didn't need any more White saviours?

Ummm no sweaty colonialism is disgusting and racist

Nothing cures the virus like free gibs! Send money wypipo!

I'll date a fat African, gotta help

Yeah, nah. At what point do they become self sufficient? How many trillions of dollars does it take? Let nature take its fucking course.

Africa is the least effected. Something tells me the climate and the people's genetic makeup is the reason.

Nah, they'll call us evil colonialists once we fix everything for them They can rot

I ain't sending a penny to help Africans. My taxes go to feed and house enough of them here in England.

Wait what? You're calling for the evil western colonialists to go back to Africa?

I for one am shocked that a distinguished news outlet like the guardian is pushing this racist 'white saviour' line, what would David Lammy say I wonder?

Are you fucking serious?

It's racist to act like Africans need our help.

Boo hoo, help yourself for once

Before helping. See the South-African president CyrilRamaphosa tell realDonaldTrump and America to shove it. Covid_19 ChinaVirus

Isn’t this ‘white saviour’ syndrome? I thought that was very unPC with likes of but apparently not anymore. Who knew?

Are you saying we need to re-colonise failed African countries because they simply cannot run them on their own?

I see a bunch of White Supremacists crying about the coronavirus not hitting Africa the same way it's hitting 'Western' nations.

Because the billions over the decades we've sent to that burning trash heap just weren't enough?

If Africa is so bad, why is America the next Italy in fighting this virus?

Would proposing a Land Value Tax help do you think?

When the US stated last year that taking land from white people in South Africa will harm the economy, our president Cyril Ramaphosa said that the West should stay out of Africa's business. He should have his wish come true.

They can handle themselves without whites, can't they?

Hard pass.

The Africans do not need the racist WEST to help them. They never needed them, to begin with. The West are LEECHES. Nice TRY deflecting. Africans are not getting the disease like that.

Let's take care of our own nations and people first. When we're good maybe we can start focusing on the welfare continent

Black Africans are not suffering from it like that. The people in Africa that are suffering from it are NON-BLACK AFRICANS.

nah

Nah, fuck them. Let's help other Europeans.

Africa is the riches continent, what would the world do without Africa, stop robbing, killing, and colonization.

Mugabe will probably kick them out too

They need to learn to dig deep to find their own solution 😎

Real Wakanda be like

Whisper “No”

Let em ask their new Colonizers. They hate the West

Please colonize us White man.

We need to help ourselves first. Godspeed guys, you’re going to need to hold out for the time being.

Africa can stop sending all their rocket surgeons to Europe and help themselves. It’s racist to think they can’t help themselves. They wuz kangs n’sheeeeit

May I ask what the motive is for this article? Not sure you checked, but Ethiopia (in Africa) is currently manufacturing medicine for COVID19 without any help from Westerners. No, this country doesn't stand for colonization either. Never has never will. COVIDRacism

Africa is China's responsibility now, and if China doesn't step upland help the Africans should use any means necessary on the Chinese colonizers to get the relief they require.

Nah

Lammy says NO ! Blacks only to the rescue.

Lmao all these whites talking about Africa needs to do for itself ignoring the centuries of blacks, globally doing so, only to be undermined by free trade market countries plotting to destabilize black countries to establish themselves(Japan, Sweden, etc).

Time to stand on their own feet

what happened to the 'white saviour comnplex' lmao

Fuck Africa.

AFRICA IS DOING FINE. THANK YOU!!

'Dig deep'? China can dig deep. Africa doesn't need 'white saviours'.

Nah. Don’t want to oppress them with our life saving medical technology.

I think the West should sit this one out!

What happened to all those doctors and engineers?

white people help meeeee!!!

The guardian is again upholding classic white supremacist tropes.

Oh no we can’t lose Africa. The mudhut and disease industries will never recover!

'Wypipo bad' 'Wypipo help!' Piss off.

Looks like that white supremacy we hear about all the time isn't so bad when you need help, eh?

Africa is full of doctors and engineers. They're fine. Plus this sounds racist. An entire huge continent that can't take care of itself? Please.

Wakanda opens its borders at long last

We can’t help. That would be colonialism.

Thats a joke..

Nah, we learned from last time. Good Luck Kings.

No, fuck them !!!

Good. I thought they weren't children and didn't need help or dirty colonialism.

No.

No

Let them fail ever since we have fed and cured them we can't have children and have to make room for them on our nations.

I thought Africa doesn't need any white saviors. Let China handle it.

Oh I thought us bringing indoor plumbing and antibiotics was “imperialism”. We’re not falling for that again.

lol let them solve this shit themselves

Why all the negativity? This is the least they deserve after they sent all their doctors and nurses over here.

Let's ask those farmers they ran off their land if these people deserve help.

No

Now they want white colonizers’ help?

Maybe if they would ban sickly Asians and Europeans from immigrating there.....

Ah yes the white man's eternal burden

Leave Africa alone

And? We have own our situation to fix up before we do anything else, bugger off, they're on their own

You'll have DavidLammy on your case if you carry on with this white saviour behaviour.

Nah. Decades and trillions of dollars of aid from the West and Africa hasn’t changed. Perhaps if the West stops enabling Africa’s corruption and violence with endless aid, they will figure things out in their own.

Wait I thought Africans didn’t want the help of whypipo and that they are better off without the colonizers... that’s what jackqisha from Chicago told me at least

Um, Africa is one of the least infected places. Now if you really want to help just take care of your damn citizens here in America.

These ppl swear somebody need them. The only virus in Africa is the racist ppl that claim they want to help.

Africa doesn't need the west. Colonizers stay home!!!!

But DavidLammy says Africa doesn't need any more white saviours?

Y'all whyt folks need to stay outta Africa. They aint ask for y'all help

They'll manage. Don't want to be accused of being a 'white saviour' again or colonialism. See David Lammy.

They don't need anymore white saviours DavidLammy

You want white people to help now after constantly being anti white Guardian 🤔 f**k you

Shall get right onto that....

No.

How about helping italy first they're dropping dead by the truckload, africa is ok compared to them. leaveafricaalone

Let’s get ourselves sorted first.

This is exactly why your only good as a substitute to toilet paper

They won't want help from us bad whities will they.

Where are the chinese

I'm sorry but check your privilege. Africans don't need colonialists. Your white saviour complex is showing. WakandaForever

No need, a Wakandan will certainly develop a cure and vaccine.

This is B.S ....... the West has the major issue right about now!! Look at the numbers. The West must dig deep and stop people with COVID-19 entering Africa and spreading the virus 🦠. The West is a joke right now. Focus on the issue here, Africa isn’t asking for help.

Let China help them they don't like us .

it's the white countries who are ravished with covid. African counties have the least problem. Yall worry about yall.

Ain't it hot in Africa , why is u lying about Africa and we know white are not helping black people stop it with the propaganda

Surely they don't need any help from vile white racists though 🤔

nah.

which African country asked you gor anything? as a matter of fact, they closed their border so you don’t bring your virus to the land

Most of them are in racist western countries

Weird. European powers we're all in a rush to colonize already inhabited lands, then take all the riches while enslaving the people, but now that the party is over, no one wants to help.

The west needs to mind its own business&stay out of Africas affairs. The only thing The West needs to dig deep for is the $20 Trillion in slavery Reparations owed to the descendants of the victims of the transatlantic slave trade⛓ DOS FBA CutTheCheck Tangibles BlackBailout

Africa can help themselves

Oh so now you need the privileged white folk, heh?

Doesn't this run at odds w/ what David Lammy & others said about 'Africa' (as though it's one monolithic bloc) not needing white saviours or western intervention. I agree w/ him how Africa is misrepresented & it has growing wealth & tech sector. But if we can help we should

Last time we helped... we all got called 'fvckin' white supremacists', so..... this time, I think I'll give it a miss. Lets see if they can rise to the challenge?

all those NGO's wondering where all their money is gonna come from ... oh shit , we better invent a real heart wrenching catastrophy to instill a little incentive for all the guilt ridden slavemasters in the west...

Bloody hell the comments, some of you lot want tobe ashamed of yourselves

Nah, wouldn't want to engage in any medical colonialism. Good luck, though!

Have you checked with DavidLammy whether Africa really require the help of white saviours?

This Italian racist pigskin took his coronavirus ridden pigskin body into Africa and was nursed back to health by these beautiful African doctors and nurses. Unfortunately.

This crisis could either bring out the best or worst in us, depends on how we play.

Have you cleared this with DavidLammy ?

Is this a form of gaslighting? White Savior complex! This is how Africa is kept into debt because this aid is not for free!

But I thought we were all racist arseholes? Now you want us to donate? Isn’t this just another form of colonisation? Ask your “opinion” writers.

The UK's own orange head Boris Johnson just tested positive for coronavirus but its Africans that need help. The mind of colonizers is indeed toxic. COVID19 doing the Lord's work in europe. GoodRiddance

Last thing you do is send money to Africa😅😅. They'll be OK with the juju men & witch doctors like in the good old pre colonial days.🥴

Racist whites are dying by thousands from coronavirus but somehow the racists think its Africans that need help. Such is the mind of colonizers. GoodRiddance

Maybe the west must help themselves first. 15000 and counting racist europeans are dead already.

Use my white privilege in such a way? This is surely a trap.

We probably need to check with DavidLammy whether we should be helping or not – we wouldn't want to appear racist

Same conclusion for Latin America. USA must help it. EU must help its former colonies in Sub-Sahara Africa & rich Saudi Arabia help North Africa

Why does the west constantly have to prop up Africa? How much more money will we have to give them? What point will it stop? Or are we just expected to keep financing billions of people that are unable to survive for themselves. What do we get from keeping Africa alive?

Yeah we can send then test kits protection gear n money n our Drs n nurses n to dig deeper more monies?

Why must Africa always be helped when they have enough?

Why should the west have to help a continent that is apparently filled with engineers, architects, and scientists who invented everything in the world? Enough is enough, and besides, David Lammy said it was racist for whites to help blacks through charity, so fuck them.

DavidLammy has categorically told us that our white saviour attitude isn’t required.

So white men must help now?

DavidLammy would like to disagree with you , 'no white knights ' to save Africa

We're a little preoccupied at the moment, but when things improve we'll happily send more cash to fund the Bentleys of African despots.

What was that about white saviour complex. How much aid money has Africa wasted since the 1960’s ?

FUCK AFRICA

Time to let their bent governments take care of their own people. We have our own to take care of.

Mr Elliott can dig deep. Since he seems to like it so much.

Sorry .....Africa doesn't need the West...They are dealing with it brilliantly without the former Colonizers .... I dont think they want or care for Western help. They are trying to keep Europeans out . Out of 54 African countries 17 have died from 19th of March....

You're a white supremacist

Seem like the West needs Africas help

To late for WHAT FFS?

Sounds likes.. colonialism

LOL

Xristos10818751 No! No! No!.....we must end all foreign aid NOW! It's time to look after this country. If unemployment goes through the roof in the UK ….You ain't see nothing yet. All those years of threatening nationalists/patriots with losing their jobs will then mean nothing. Coronavirus

Enough! When the West ‘digs deep’ the money is never seen by those who need. Corruption abounds.Papers like yours complain about white western supremacy over the black African continent. Let them finally deal with their own problems. They are not imbeciles.

Nah Africa is on their own. And they can stop flooding into Western countries as well. A virus might do em some good

Nah stay away!

They have had enough money from the white trash...ull only spunk it on BMW's and Ak47s...we have heard it all before.

Let them figure it out. Quit sending them aid. It obviously hasn't done anything.

Always first help yourself.

Whats wrong with you people always have to shit on Africa? If you are you so good tell me then why your People are dying like flies? Stop that superiority bs. This virus has really exposed your weakness in your so called white supremacist system but yet you want to project.

I thought the Guardian thinks all 'neo colonialism is bad'? So colonialism did bring medicine to Africa and was in fact good not bad.

The west has been paying aid to African for ever, where has the money gone? Private jets, armies, Swiss bank accounts, expensive properties in London, etc. The Nigerian leaders have looted tens of billions of oil money

They are black and therefore dispensable barring those furnishing cash crops for the west. As long as we stop them from crossing into Europe all will be well. I think thats the usual rational isnt it?

DavidLammy this ok with you?

Comments like this will not help

Sorry- no can do. Didn’t the folks from Africa build the west? Now is their chance to prove how brilliant we’ve been told they are

In case you missed it, the west is broke! And probably going into a recession. If not a full blown depression!

They've been taking loads of money from China, so...

The west have been digging like 150 years... let them regulate their own staff, let them live then maybe they can find solutions by themselves.

Don't tell David Lammy

The West can't even take care of it's own Coronavirus due to a failure of leadership in most (not all) countries.

Bloody white colonialists imposing their racist knowledge! Down with this sort of thing! Cultural appropriation is never okay!

Oooo oo oo I know mr globalist 🤔. New World Order

Fuck Africa

Don't want to be accused by lammy of being a 'white savior'

Africans are capable enough to solve their own problems, leave them to their own devices. Stop with the 'White saviour complex'

They’ll be fine on their own.

We are digging deep already and we wouldn't want to upset DavidLammy

Hang on...

Africa needs benevolent, western colonial style gvts to make the best of its resources. Doesn’t history prove that African gvts can neither manage their own resources nor people effectively ? (Don’t ask me why that is, I just don’t know)

No

We could wear silly headscarves. The Guardian loves a headscarf, and the BBC and Woke celebs.

Speaking to people who live in one of the urban 'slums' in Nairobi, they are very worried about the virus. No clean water to wash hands; hand sanitizer too expensive; food prices rising; cramped living quarters. This could be an absolute disaster (throughout Africa & S. America)

Get stuffed Empire & colonialism died decades ago, they wanted autonomy they have it We ARE NOT THE WORLD'S CASH COW

We need to stop our aid budget RIGHT NOW and stop the influx TOUT SUIT.

Wakanda? Surely not. They invented medicine

Why?

When will Africa beat anything alone?

No.

Say no to money colonialism from white people. U guys are gonna be fine

Just ban them from entering.

I think Africa has had enough of 'white saviours'. Time for them to show the world what black excellence can do.

Come on now, they don’t need white saviours remember.

What I'm going to say may sound very inhumane but perhaps, given the state of affairs in Africa as well as the demographic boom, it might be better to let it go. Of course you want to avoid unnecessary suffering but, very cynically, this virus my actually more likely end it.

The soft racism of low expectations - and from a Guardian journalist too.

sorry, we don't want to be seen as white saviours,I'm sure they will invent the tech needed in their own

Why don't we get all the NGOs who've been blackmailing African governments to do things their way for the last couple of decades to sort it out. They know best.

Nope.

Ask Bono and Geldof for the rest of their We are the World money. Now GFY.

The last thing they want is more colonialist intervention. Best we don't interfere this time, less criticism in twenty years time.

Stop promoting colonialism, it’s time for the whitesaviour mentality to end.

Sorry lads. You are on your own. Don't want to upset the likes of Lammy again.

Sorry, we’d hate to be colonialists & impose a ‘white privileged’ cure Good luck 👍

China can dig deep since they caused it.

By that will upset Lammy

Let China handle it.

DavidLammy says its white privilage to help with donations so no we wont be helping...thats right isnt it Dave

i'm no white saviour

Why do you always see Africa as a basket case? Did they ask for help? Nigeria battled Ebola without western help and also helped neighboring countries. Please enough of negativity about Africa

The West already digs deep every year with foreign aid. All our economies are now in danger so Africa will need to step up and deal with it themselves.

Maybe all those Africans who have crossed the Med in boats will want to go back and help their fellow countrymen!

Er, dunno if you noticed, but we're a bit in the shit right now.

Send condoms

No. We’re not White Saviours.

What? And then you'll go back to calling us all racist pieces of shit again afterwards? No, no I don't think so!! I'm sure their 'diversity', which is after all, our strength, will see them through. If not, send in Stormzy. he's been a bit quiet lately!

the shackles of money that bind us across the world on a trimming listing spaceshipearth must be released

But that would mean we are being white colonial saviours. Wakanda can save itself surely?

China's been doing business in Africa for quite some time now. China should pick up the tab considering it's all their fault.

Some people just can't help their racist colonialist instincts can they. The western intelligentsia constantly tell us that Africans are just as capable as westerners and yet as soon as some sort of problem arises the repressed colonists want to drag us back there.

That’ll be some of that ‘white privilege’ your after. Am I correct?

Fet Gucked

Oh I'm sorry I thought we weren't meant to act as white saviours. Funny how you want our allegedly systemically racist societies to drop everything to go and help them.

You are failures in journalism and life, you are finished as a business and as a force of influence. Fuckity bye 👋🤣

Aid to Africa. 😰

We can't, don't wanna be white saviours. DavidLammy will get stroppy.

They already have too many people, how many lives will it cost the west through neglect of our own people?

Also colonialism bad More Guardian hypocrisy. Will we also have to pay them reparations for giving them medicines?

Nah mate

Why?

Lmao, no.

They can sort it themselves with the trillions of dollars the West has sent them.

Leave them alone

Dear lord I’ve been praying 🙏🏽

*Western countries prints stimulus money for Corona, progressives start getting a sugar rush* *one person in Africa starts coughing* Progressives: LET'S GIVE AFRICA 500 TRILLION POUNDS

Woah woah woah have you run this white saviour idea past davidlammy ?

China will have to write off a lot of loans it made to African countries first.

West itself need help right now. How they can help other when their own ship is sinking😂

France blocked Britian from getting masks. Germany gave Italy the middle finger. The US just got 3 million newly unemployed as a start . But drop this another part of the world needs help Sadly for Africa the West can't solve this. Now they must step up to the mark themselves

Didn't notice them helping the west in recent weeks.

Dear Africans, F-off and take care of yourselves. We have our own people to take care of. ~ Sincerely, the World

The Average age of the continent is about 19. They will do just fine. Worry about your country and continent.

They wont want “white mans pity”

Fuck that!

Sounds like you're advocating colonialism here? Last thing they need is the imperialistic West reasserting power. They'll beat this virus through the power of diversity. COVID2019

They do just fine without their colonial masters

To quote my Ugandan friend Leo 'Don't worry about us , worry about your own...here the Virus will just bounce off and move on '

That was one long winded boring article.

Why is africa always our problem? They are adults just like we are. Let them be big boys for once.

We've been 'stepping in' to help this shithole continent since they started throwing trocaire boxes into our kids schoolbags in the 70's. They've been given billions of westerners money for decades. They can go and sort their own shit out now at this stage, we've our own problems

No more white saviours. Send David Lammy !

Surely they got Wakanda to help out?

Kind of a racist position. Poor little Africans can’t manage without us. Especially since we’re not managing ourselves.. I think the Africans will rise to the occasion maybe more than we have.

We are digging deep to help our own people for a change

'Africa won't beat coronavirus on its own.' - totally racist and unacceptable statement! White people 'helping' Africa in any way is exploitative, and will just continue the legacy of colonialism.

Come on DavidLammy have a word!

They don’t want Western colonialism!!!! They are all highly educated people!!! The continent is full to bursting with Doctors, engineers etc!!! Leave them alone you are nothing but a white saviours!!!!

What price will 'the world' pay? He doesn't seem to say

Wish them the very best of luck. Sorry won't be helping this time cause i dont want to be called racist by DavidLammy

Nobody cares ..... really nobody actually cares

But why? 'We wuz kings!!! no need whites' CouldntCareLess

yeah really difficult to predict that that will certainly not happen

No

But DavidLammy doesnt want white saviours helping Africans.

Umm I'm not send over any of my white privilege, ta

Yeah let’s help A continent that’s has been given hundreds of billions in the last 20 years and is a bigger shithole than ever 🤔🤔

I say we don't help the ooga boogas :)

That would be imperialism. Ask Wakanda.

How about we look after ourselves first? If we help Africa it's a drop in the ocean, it never works on a big scale, those in authority benefit most & we are called out on colonialism. If we don't were selfish arrogant bastards who have left them to suffer. We can't win either way

Lets look after our own for once.

White man's burden.

I'm with DavidLammy on this one, they don't need any white saviours.

“Calling SurBob and Bonio...”

Did you write anything for the genocide of white farmers?

They can f off for all i care

Unbelievably racist to suggest that Africa can’t cope on its own. Shocked that would put out such a dog whistle to those who want to keep Africa in its place.

Hang on, I thought Africa didn’t need more white saviours? Im so confused

Woah woah woah have you checked with DavidLammy to ensure that it isn't white racist colonialism for 'the west' to help the proud independent africans?

For once I'm with David lammy on something

We could always send back the millions of scientists, doctors and geniuses we've taken in and racially oppressed over the years? Good idea or nah?

I'm gonna take David Lammys advice and leave them be.

Lots of black guys asking white people to help them out.

DavidLammy Will obviously hate the thought of “white saviours” and condemn this.

Larry, why are you a racist?

cc DavidLammy

*chinese

What?! I thought David Lammy said we didn’t need any more white saviours!!

China owns most of Africa now. Where are they? Are they helping? Take a guess on yes or no.

the west doesn't have anything to help

The last thing they need is more white saviours

Actually that's not true. There are so many Africans already, the virus will die before their race.

China should help them

WHO shouldn’t you deploy staff there to sort out this crisis gatesfoundation BillGates UN

True !
