skinz Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Why is that? Or mores the question, does he even know the group you're talking about before making such a crass reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunsel Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Calm down, people. This is a civilised, sophisticated society we live in. Sniping and insults solve nothing. Must watch rugby now as bored with childish insults being hurled about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTERVIEWER Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 The combined wealth of all the rich celebrities who took part in this back slapping event, and the colossal amount of money collected by the BBC (under pain of a home invasion and court appearance) to put on shows such as Comic Relief through the BBC TV Licence fee would go a long way to ensuring that there is no need for such further shameful displays where the wealthy plead with the poor to donate their money to aid corrupt and incompetent regimes overseas...

Bassman62 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Why is that? Why is there a very poor part of India, a country where there are more £Billionairs than in the UK. Should a nuclear power have poor needy children? What the aid is doing is freeing funds to further the nuclear arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What proportion of your time or income do you reckon goes to good causes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman62 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 That's my point exactly. You've completely ignored the existence of them.I've not at any stage discussed the UK faction I object to the constant throwing of money down the drain in Africa where contrary to the myth little changes or why would we still keep being blasted with the emotional blackmail, why don't they stick them in the faces of their leaders or better still parade them around at the the UN.

I get it now, you think a few years of Comic Relief should have cured poverty and illness in Africa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, if I understand you correctly, you are comfortable with UK charities. Despite the fact that loads of our tax money goes on state banquets and ostentatious displays of wealth. As for corrupt politicians, Westminster has proved itself to have plenty. We could use that money to do other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
