The thought of a single penny i donate could end up in the hands of corrupt tyrant presidents e.g Obiang Tobago and the Obvious Mugabe makes me shudder, those people take our kindness as a weakness of which they can benefit from. On this occassion in my eyes the greater good doesn't win. Only a succesfull coup to overthrow the corruption will Africa become a better place. Only time i can think of that Mark Thatcher could have done something good.
And as for the celebs they dust off year after year for exposure * who's got the sick bucket?* I need it quick.
I can see your point but even the most thickest moron surely wouldn't hand money over the Zimbabwe at the moment due to the twat in charge. It's a sad state when people keep turning a blind eye regard Zimbabwe but then again they don't have oil do they

I just do my 'bit' in my own time and in my own way. I don't like a big load of pretentious tv crap to try and emotionally blackmail me into donating. I have 2 regular charities i am involved with i will give a lttle bit for other causes when i feel like it. I don't like big events like this because somewhere down the line someone somewhere will be creaming something from it. There are 2 pockets in every game you know.

I don't do BIG EVENTS either, but on ocassions like this I throw my coins in the bucket (like everyone else).

I maybe shot for saying this, but i feel that a lot of people only donate to make themselves feel better, a fair few people i know couldnt give a toss that a big part of the world is starving.
That said, its been fab so far tonight. Tony Blair - whatever you think about him, put politics aside - he was brilliant.

Well, when i was banned many years back i was so desperate to come back i had to think of a name on the spot, i came up with Onetrickpony.
I may as well be honest, i have nothing to lose

judging by the campness you have displayed in your videos, i can see an obvious flaw in your plan.
