| Coming soon on the BBC.
Do you feel comfortortable supporting a worthy cause on a service provider that has encouraged/ denied child abuse?
You pay your annual fee, is it right?

If you ignore the Daily Mail hyperbole, encouraged FFS! then yes, people can both be appalled at what went on twenty years ago and what great work CiN does now.
If they can't they are planks.

| No. Whatever has happened in the past taints the corporation for ever, and no amount of money raised can ever help anyone ever.
Stupid question.

My nomination for dumbest, most idiotic post of 2012. Whether you win or not - well done

| I think we should just point out the sheer hypocrisy of the [iDaily Mail[/i on this entire issue, since it effectively encourages a spot of 'perving' over underage girls (and the occasional boy) and makes money out of it.

Can you point me in the direction of the "BBC guide to abusing children" or "alternative ways for viewers to win a Blue Peter badge" list?
what I do not feel comfortable with is a load of multi multi multi millionaires telling the general population about how donating "just £5" can change a childs life. So f'k off Bono and take Geldolff with you. As for you Wogan, you're an ameiable bloke, but stop the preaching.

It's a fairly simple question, who would get more donations you or Bono?
Anything else is a strawman.

I see you've been on a management speak course, congratulations.
You and I both know my point, Bono preaches whilst fleecing anyone who will pay him.

Is that the Mail Online thing that had a picture of Chloe Grace Moretz and saying how attractive she looks with her slim body ( I think she's not yet 16 either ) or words to that effect ?

| To answer the OP, no I don't support the CiN appeal and can't recall ever having done so, but its got nothing to do with Jimmy Savile and more to do with charity fatigue, ie I can't be d.
I support two charities every year, one by monthly donation, one by an annual event - and thats my lot.

Answer the question FFS. Who would raise more, I'll give you a hint, it isn't you.
Bono and his like raise a small fortune for worthwhile causes, if they stop are you going to plug the gap?

It cannot be any less than Starbucks paid, a big fat 'zero' on over £1 billion.

| Is this the Pudsey Bear fronted appeal ? If so , they can shove it up their harrises . I fell out with that lot the first year they ( the 'round table' ) did their appeal when they borrowed my race car , wrecked it , and reneged on promises to provide me with a replacement vehicle . They also wrecked any chance of me ever donating a bean to their cause .
My (very) charitable donations and efforts are all done for local needy people nowadays . I don't mind helping out where I can actually see that people are benefitting from my efforts . There are kids going hungry , and elderly folk that need assistance in this country too .
Charity begins at home . It should also end at home .

Maybe you should blame the round table rather than the whole appeal...

| But you're quite comfortable, Standee with multi multi millionaires telling us plebs what we should and shouldn't be spending our money on (food vouchers instead of benefits?) But you're not comfortable with a pop star asking for pledges which raises millions for a good cause??? Its Friday, you always post your contraversial views on a Friday
