skinz Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I mean will they ? We always seem to send money abroad to disasters occurring in other countries, so will they send money to our victims of the floods ? Have you made a donation? In fact have you volunteered in any way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattricia Posted November 28, 2012 Author Share Posted November 28, 2012 Have you made a donation? In fact have you volunteered in any way? They arent collecting for the flood victims, but if they were, I would contribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pottedplant Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 They arent collecting for the flood victims, but if they were, I would contribute. If you feel so strongly why not start something? Bucket collection outside M and S or get a train up to York with a flask of coffee to share with those affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callippo Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 more people get killed here in the Philippines, real dead, as a result of floods in in the average week, as occurs in the UK over about 10 years. Only you never hear about it on Newsnight, because it happens so frequently, it isn't news. only when there is a big mega disaster, which only happens about two or three years, and hundreds of people are killed, will you get any notion of it. UK people just don't realise that just by being born there, they have already won the lottery of life. No earthquakes, typhoons, tropical diseases, droughts, floods, volcanoes you name it you lucky gits don't get it. And that's before you factor in that's it's one of the richest countries in the world with all the benefits of health provision, educational facilities and social amenities that brings. so stop whining. It bothers me like a mosquito bothers me (oh wait, you don't get those there either). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
