I think Nigera offered to be fair, but they wanted bank details first

I think Cumbria comes a long way down on the disaster scale. Not wishing to be harsh on those who have suffered from flooding.

''Help Cumbria.... Buy A Sausage''
Does that work? |

Didn't we give a magnanimous sum to India, who thanked us by saying they didn't want it?

No, and UK Charity begins abroad,
For the past 3 years, 10, 11 and £12 BILLION Pounds, have been given away to Foreign aid, Bangladesh, Pakistan and other African countries. |

The people of Cumbria don't count, their misfortune doesn't count.
A classic case of hatred of your own and a love of the strange. |

No just ego tripping leaders who want kudos on the world stage.

And the UK has just committed £1Billion to Malaria help
 When was the last time you were bitten by a Mosquito in the UK  |
|
By:
Diverting some of the billions being squandered on foreign aid would have a twofold effect.
It would give much needed relief to the people of Cumbria and give a boost to that local economy. |
|
By:
Stopping poor afriacans getting malaria is something I 100% agree with.
I don't mind at all if some of my tax goes to that good. It's the other sh*t we piss away that annoys me :( My gripe is that if there is a lot of flooding near sellafield, why aren't the bottling the water and sending it to me so I can get superpowers? |

Global Warming is also the Biggest Scam Going,
££Billions spent, Even Greenpeace agree, The UK needs more Nuclear reactors, The world Warms up and Down every 100 years, Look at History. |

Africa - they breed like Rabbits-Isl@mists,
Sterilize them, Not enough Water, Crops don't Grow, Give them All a pushbike and "Get the Fook out of Dodge!" Oh but I forgot, the Land is full of Minerals, Diamonds, Oil, Businesses keep them there as Slaves, and to test out the latest Vaccines on them |

tbf - we do live off the slave labour of certain third world asian countries - so UK maybe not a priority maybe

Our 'friends the 'Super rich Saudis' are bombing the crap out of Yemen, and some fckin bint comes into my living room asking me for money for aid, Use the fcken money spent on the ad to produce one shaming our Government and it's deals/ties with this hateful country.

Are the British the most giving nation on the planet, judging by all the expensive appeals Charity shops, and army of 'Chuggers' we must be near the top.!

We've an appeal going in Scotland. So far we've collected 8000 gallons. Every little helps.

The figures are astonishing.
There are more than 195,289 registered charities in the UK that raise and spend close to £80Billion a year. Together, they employ more than a Million staff – more than our car, aerospace and chemical sectors – and make 13 billion ‘asks’ for money every year, the equivalent of 200 for each of us in the UK. |
|
By:
That's staggering statistics.

Will Factoids be opening his home to the struggling and stranded of Cumbria, or is it an Islamics-only property now? I don't suppose he would want to offend his Peace-Loving guests by having some white British types with funny Northern accents on the premises.

Judged on this thread we're certainly the biggest whingers, but we knew that already, the classic (and classy) stiff upper lip and just dealing with it old Britain, being replaced by victimhood, wanting someone else to do something about it and emoting all over the place. |

My daughter is getting about £700 £500 grant and £200 from some church fund.
She was the young woman on the life boat who kept saying she was freezing on sky news the day after the flood her baby is living at our house for the foreseeable future until her home is ready to move back into. |

By:
These unfortunate people are about to experience a terrible Christmas with more flooding expected over the weekend. They are taxpayers, in the rainiest county in England and surely deserve to have more support when the Government has ring fenced overseas aid and cut flood defences. Millions were thrown at Kids Company when people who deserved help were left in the lurch. It is nothing less than a National disgrace.

people in cumbria are the wrong colour to qualify for help

add Lancashire and Yorkshire to the list, its even worse at Hebden Bridge than the last time a few years ago.God knows what York will be like it floods after a light shower.

There must be at least one 'mussie' living there somewhere to complain, come on sort it out, DC will magic up some money !

Local emergency services are working valiantly around the clock but more Army personnel are needed to help.

If I was flooded out of my home and - okay Ill bite on the bait here - another country offered charity money to me, I would refuse as best I could, to be the recipient of any such gift however well meant.
Then again, I don't get off on being a pretend victim and see Muslims as the new / latest bogeymen and can also watch the BBC with fully functioning bu11shit detectors |
|
By:
I would much rather the governemnt began to force the Environment Agency to begin spending its cash on flood defences,dredging rivers and streams and employing engineers to analyse and predict potential flood areas more efficiently instead of blaming it all on the easy answer of climatechange (hence we cant do anything about it so its not our fault,you just have to suffer).

Booths supermarkets have joined the Cumbria Flood 2015 Appeal. You can donate from their website or donate food at all their stores. Just dropped off some canned goods.
