    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It is Sunday and 'turn the other cheek' comes to mind. But, if you really do think that this is a personal attack on you, by me, then, there's not much else to be said. Forget it OG, I'm not going to bother attempting anymore nice stuff. If this is how it should work, then so be it - we can all...

    You know exactly why I criticised what you did and it had nothing to do with asking him to post on topic. This personal stuff is not good and no one (any of us) should need to sink to such depths.

    I certainly don't bother to watch it either but, choose not to take your moral high-ground on the basis it does a lot of good, and to do so it needs the publicity. As for the do-gooder image, with you all the way but that's the way some people get to do things.

    Cheap booze trips won't be affected by Brexit then?

    Not you as well? I never went back to update it later, if that's what you mean?

    Works for me here http://apps.charitycommission.gov.uk/Accounts/Ends52/0000802052_AC_20150630_E_C.pdf Quite how Robdon gives you a 'like' is baffling - perhaps he thought you were called me a liar or similar?

    Not your usual balanced reply. I'm not a fan of the larger charities but can accept that some of them do great good simply because of their scale. Yes, of course the BBC gain from doing it but equally the Charity is not paying them for their resources. Generally a Win - Win.

    Come on OG you can surely be nicer than this? Such a response is totally over the top and verging on being nasty.

    Tom I too have an interest on how these charities use the money. However in this case I suspect that you may have been unfair, irrespective of how the BBC themselves chose to answer the FOI request. All charities have to register with the Charities Commission and here is the report submitted...

    I'm sensitive too and don't need the sarcasm thanks. Having now read the DT link I can see you're right, certainly when compared to earlier reports albeit there are some questions remaining about the cap on numbers. Nice to think that you have a sense of humour.

    I can't help it, unlike you I'm a nice guy - unless someone upsets me - be careful, I'm trained to kill!

    Good for you and I have no issue with making sure those that will benefit get educated and if that means paying for them so be it. But, it's not that simple is it, plenty of my friends benefited in this way, became lawyers or whatever. Unfortunately, I don't think you will find that free...

    I do agree that certainly from our local perspective the Irish border issue will prove a defining moment. Blame is rather more difficult to see as being fair. I accept that it didn't get much, if any, thought in the referendum. Nothing much did. Truth be known, it was a very simple question...

    Thanks Dan, very balanced. Unfortunately we (UK) do seem to be confrontational and none more so than on here where it is difficult to have rational comment without an element of civil war taking place. Perhaps that's exactly what we need to bring a sense of reality. Who knows, just be very glad...

    Now you're being as daft as the rest of the Looney Left on here. I'm quite capable of making my own mind up and generally I will pick and choose what policies I like and those that I dislike. Free prescriptions, would be free for me anyway, wherever I lived in the UK. Do I think that they are a...
