Have you? how much?
Do you intend do?
Not yet. I intend buying as many mosquito nets as I can afford though. :)

I'm not a fan of comic relief. I know they raise a lot of money, but it seems as though it's packed full of people with stuff to flog.
I also don't think news people dancing to one direction, or some other ****e is in anyway funny. I do give to charities, but not ones that raise such huge amounts of money already.

Some of it is god awful but it's all worth it. OneD doing the song is great because they're so bloody famous and it's all for a good cause. But I hate them covering that song and they should be shaved

I had no idea 1d were involved. I was making reference to that newscaster segment they always do, when they make them do a dance from grease or something.

Yeah, its hard to watch. I remember a few years ago, watching a short film about malaria, and I wasn't just a wee bit upset, I was full blown, head in hands sobbing and wailing.

I Agree.
Also it needs to get off the BBC
and go to another channel.

If it's the one that's all about giving to Africa then no.

No. And I don't donate in school either for local charities or for Africa.
Even in McDonalds when I have 5p change, I refuse to stick it in the donation box - you can call me ignorant or selfish, but I honestly think it's in Britain's best interest to look out for our own and sort our own ******ing economic problems out first, before trying to help other countries every year.
In School when teachers come round with a bucket for donations I refuse to pay aswell and everyone has a go at me, as Tesco say - every little helps, and in times like these I'd much rather spend my money on something that will benefit me, my family or friends rather than a ******ing charity who seem to look for the same sh*te every year and really don't seem to be making that much progress considering how much they raise.
I hear 5p is exactly what is needed to fix our economy. Thanks Patrick

I won't be watching and I won't be donating. I do give to charity but Comic Relief is just awful. All those comedians and actors being all pious and tugging at your heart strings, it just feels so insincere. It's already dragged on for weeks and every time I see another embarrassingly unfunny programme linked with it I imagine African dictators thumbing through catalogues wondering if they could swing a new G6.

I watched a doc called 'The trouble with aid' which changed my mind on the whole charity thing to Africa. That they have to pay off gangs to get the money there which cuts straight into the funds anyway and the situations are often exaggerated.

There will probably be buckets round college tomorrow so I will donate there.
Comic relief benefits UK charities. Not all the money goes to help Africa, but I'd still donate regardless.

Hi, I'm an A-list celebrity. I literally earn 100 times more than you do. Please give me a fiver.

I don't know I guess it just depends on your lifestyle and personal income though - I mean If I was earning thousands and had money to burn, I'd have no problem throwing a few quid their way. [Maybe not to Comic Relief, more so to Cancer Research etc] but the fact is when people are struggling to provide for their own families on a daily basis, surely we need to be a little selfish and put ourselves first.

Not atm, might do though I dunno, I have a tendency to be a selfish bastard and be quite reluctant to part with my pennies

What the hell does the economy have to do with it, Comic Relief and other charities don't affect our economy in any shape or form. The only way economy can be sorted is down to spending and taxes. There would be an outrage if people were asked to donate extra money to the economy when taxes already exist. You two clearly haven't thought it through properly, such a thick and ignorant argument http://forum.goregrish.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/facepalma.gif
