....a great charity for a great cause...
or
..a total waste of time and money, and simply for a few self important rich celebrities to make themselves look good?

It raises about £60 million which sounds a lot but in truth is only about the value of the pension pots of a few senior BBC executives or a couple of nice houses in a prime central London location.

I know that the principal objective is to raise shedloads for Africa's impoverished, but surely "making people laugh" must appear somewhere on the list of aspirations for Comic Relief? There must come a time when even the primitive sense of humour of the Great British Public tires of BBC News presenters dancing in drag and Peter Kay reprising his "garlic bread" routine for the 48,756th time.
Needless to say, I'll be giving it a miss. I might stick a few quid in the collection boxes that will no doubt be circulating the pubs in Stone on Friday night. Just so long as the collectors don't try to be funny.

The BBC State TV propaganda machine exploiting people's misery for entertainment and PR.
Nothing but empty tokenism.
Expose the reasons for people's poverty, if you truly care.
Oh, and 25 years and not one mention of the most violently oppressed and impoverished people on the planet - the Palestinians.

An event with its heart in the right place, making unfortunate children's lives better, whether in this country or abroad is no bad thing, if some people actually saw some of these centres in action they'd understand.

How much did it cost to hire that Boaing 747 so they could sing on it?  Why not just that money to charity? |

It's one big ego trip and one big, sick joke with overpaid, talentless celebs and hypocritical politicians and their one-sided austerity - targeting the poorest, who are forcing cancer patients on to fucking workfare. Brought to by the padeo-ring, State TV BBC, who just love pitting the poor against the poorest in vetted, pre-recorded, propaganda-piece "debates" on their shitty "news" outlets If anyone brings a bucket near me, I'll puke in it. |

If that film on cyber bullying, stops and makes one kid (or indeed adult) think twice about what those sort of actions can lead to, (and it will) then the whole thing has been worthwhile.
