        Let's hope the £££ goes where needed to improve lives.....rather than on expensive money grabbing people overseeing the distribution of the ££.

        If this story is what it purports to be (and these days you never know, so it's kinda saddening to have to add as bynote) - then this guy is the kind of hero we need to cherish, and the kind of man we need more of in this world.

        The money will surely go to those in need, especially those who are war victims, homeless people because of typhoon and poor communities in developing countries. We know Oxfam is doing their best to serve depressed and conflict affected communities.

        Pay rises all round then, unless you're a vulnerable woman of course.

        Wow, what a legacy. Let’s hope @Oxfam don’t waste the money on those sods in town who stop you on the street or knocking on your door try to get your money. That money could change literally millions of lives. What a guy.
