Charity appeals for money

Whilst I do donate to several charities, I am NOT amused when non-resident ex pats who pay no UK tax are used to appeal for money for UK based charities.

Some kind of context would not only be nice, but is actually required as per the rules.

It is a subject for comment, nothing more nothing less. It is a different debate to UK resident very rich people being used to front up charity appeals.

Well, without context I wouldn't expect anything more in way of replies than it has so far attracted.

Based on my recent experience when I do put context no-one replies to that either.

Nice diversion - which is a very common tactic from you when someone challenges you to provide context, proof or any of those other nasty things we expect on an adult debate forum.

But hey, perhaps it should tell you something - the problem is not those who do or do not respond to your posts, its your posts.

Not all debate subjects have a context, although in the case of my thread starter that is the context.
