I see the annual Festival of White Middle-class Guilt is almost upon us.

Why DO we persist in chucking billions down the ever-open throat of African Charity?

Tsk. You're not very bright are you? Its cos its an investment innit?

Its so the corrupt rulers can then spend it buying British arms to ruthlessly oppress their people. Simple

@ flange100 - not really, a lot of people lives have been saved or improved in the UK not just Africa.

Oooh I know this one!

It's a simple test to recognise miserable, soulless, bitter, inhuman borderline psychopaths who can calmly watch a child dying in it's mothers' arms, then happily turn off, fire up their multi-thousand pound stereo and not give it a second thought.

Our own country? Where are you from? (I'm assuming English isn't your mother tongue)

the annual Festival of White Middle-class Guilt

Are you saying that black people don't contribute to Red Nose Day ?

Luckily I'm not middle-class and therefore feel no guilt.

@ flange100 - it's sounds like you're hurting inside, do you want to talk about it?

'Dear STW, I am a small minded, short armed, deep pocketed, tight fisted hateful stereotype of a Little-Englander.
Could you please let everyone know?
Love, flange100.
PS, I know it's a stupid user name, but at least it gives people an idea what to expect.'

They should stop shagging.

I NEVER support red arse day.

Africa is an open sore that will never heal.

I wouldn't get loads of cats and dogs if there was no food / water / money / shelter for them.

I'm 42 and we had this shit going on when I was six years old. Let's raise some money for those poor hungry African people.

Bollocks - there's plent of British people who need help before we start throwing money at them.

We pretty much did, bar a relatively small number of exceptions.

There are on the other hand millions of people in far worse trouble than you could ever get into in this country I reckon.

Never mind Africa, we should be focussing on the real issues of the day here. Did you know that a gay person was discussing gayness on the radio the other day? Can you catch that from listening to their sort, or do you have to be in the same room?

1) Great idea, what do you suggest? We could address poverty, so long it doesn't involve giving money to doley scroungers.

2) Great idea flange. This year, don't send your money to the Africans, donate it to a British cause instead. Do let us know which charity you'll be giving your money to this year.

So you have been aware of RND for 26 years, 26 ****ing years, but you have never once bothered to find out what it was about ? ! 😯

If if you [b]had[/b] bothered to find out was it was about, you wouldn't have made an ignorant comment such as "[i]I'm 42 and we had this shit going on when I was six years old. Let's raise some money for those poor hungry African people."[/i]

40% of the money raised on RND is spent in the UK.

TopTip : Find out the facts before making an ill-informed rant.

And oh yes, please tell that you haven't reproduced ?

We haven't but we have a house, two incomes, a sewage system and a fresh water supply so we have the right to.

Oh - 6 + 26 = 32 - I'm 42.

But the inability to find out a simple fact over a 26 year period ?

EDIT : Actually the first RND was 23 years ago. So you were 19 ?

ernie_lynch - totally in agreement but I wouldn't rise to the bait, he's just another ignorant person on this forum trying to be controversial to rattle peoples cages. Bit petty really.

This thread should be closed anyway due to racial hatred.

Just drop a nuke on half of Africa. Then 100% of RND funds can go to the UK.

Western culturs have raped Afica of resources for centuries, still going on plenty of places too, Nigerian oil fields are a prime example. The aid given to Africa is a drop in the ocean compared to what it taken from Africa.
