Posting like this on a story about charitable donations to local charities just further discredits your already ludicrous position.
What in particular do you find so upsetting about this act of charity? What pandering?
Perhaps you applied yourself (as you’re clearly in need of some sort of therapy) but didn’t make the shortlist?

The exodus will never require help from the finance sector, seems you have not read our manifesto.
