The grid girls, darts girls should get together and put on a charity event for Royal Manchester Children's Hospital. I bet they'd raise loads and show the PC brigade their intelligence.

A sponsored walk/cycle JOGLE (jiggle?) John O'groats to Lands End. They could do it in "legs" (good eh) 20mls each. Soon get there and the profile might get them back working doing what they love.

Aye, they could use Brendan (touch my) Cox as their PR agent now that Max Clifford is gone....

Virtue signalling: a phrase used by the right when they're afraid they're dealing with someone with more compassion than themselves.

Haven't you heard? Elevated Compassion Bragging is the new Virtue Signalling.

Virtue signalling: something bragged about by the Left whilst the Right just do and move on!

True, but we're really talking about doing *virtuous* things.

True. GSOH did right to face down Charlie's Army, put child's needs ahead of emotional blackmail. Wrong later to cave to the demands of the PC brigade, rejecting money intended to serve children's needs. Late acceptance as Oxfam etc changes opinion? At least kids are first again.

Absolutely the right thing to do. An excellent hospital with fantastic hard working compassionate staff. The children matter more than the point scoring.

Agree with the sentiment but the kids should come first. Hopefully one rethink will lead to another and a more balanced approach to politics.

Obviously you have more relevant knowledge than me. I still think taking the money is right though - as you are quite right to take the actions you have done

Have now looked at this and fully understand your position. Have given up on
#BBCQT as it is so unbalanced and often accentuates the negatives in modern day society. This being a vile example. -
