And they're thinking of changing the name to Children in Weed. It beggars belief.

Brighton?!

Sending kids to a Brighton game is no charitable act. It's the worst punishment imaginable .

"BBC Children in Need has today announced that the charity will match the £10m funding pledge recently made by Stormzy to tackle racial inequality in the UK. Inspired by Stormzy’s commitment, BBC Children in Need will be matching his pledge of £10m over 10 years, and developing a dedicated new funding programme to support young Black talent to achieve their full potential, working in partnership with BBC Radio 1Xtra."

Pick one, BBC. You can either:

1. Tackle racial inequality
2. Provide funding based on the colour of skin

How offensive to impoverished white people this whole thing is. Essentially what the BLM movement is saying is that, if you're poor and you're white, you deserve to be where you are because you've historically and presently had every opportunity and still 'failed'.
Others will disagree with me on that^, but I cannot see how this type of program, and others like affirmative action etc, are not blatantly making this offensive argument.

 

When you’re knocked on your back and your life’s a flop...

Apartheid charity is here

 

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.
