To be fair, I actually DON'T think £200k is excessive for a CEO position at a large charity, especially when you consider what the CEO's of large for-profit organisations are making. It's actually "only" about £125k take-home.

There are charities where people are making millions though and that is obviously an absolute joke.

Yeah, I don't disagree with you Niamh.

Its a reason I have heard a lot of people using for supporting smaller, local charities as the money is not absorbed on as many salaries.

The big charities get Government help too which smaller ones don't and have to rely on.

the problem is in the name .... charity. They raise money by false pretences. It's not really a charity in the true sense of the word. It's an organisation that provides assistance to particular areas of depravation while still paying themselves handsome remuneration.

There is a level of expectation (usually wrong) that charities consist of volunteers that do the work for free. That the majority of donations make there way to the afflicted group and it just doesn't work like that

If Bob Geldofs live aid taught us anything, it was that the majority that participate are in it for the money and or fame. That corruption at every step in the process means that only a tiny proportion of the donated funds actually get to the intended recipients

For me to give to a charity these days, i have to see total transparency on who gets what

I do think that any charity should spend at MOST 25% on running costs, with 75% actually going to charity, or I'd take it as an indication that something isn't right. Either deliberate profiteering or just over-stretching what they're doing vs what they're bringing in. Should be transparent and falling below that for more than a short period of time should trigger someone looking into it and potential loss of charity status.

Reporting today that the greedy cow was appointed CEO of the charity and wanted a £150k salary but the watchdog stepped in a put a stop to her. Even old Tommy boy would have been embarrassed by her audacity and self righteousness.

[LaLaLand]

Really disgraceful behaviour. Shame on her if all turns out to be correct.

The sick truth is that pen pushers or email senders are getting paid a lot of money for doing very little.

People sitting on their arses getting fat drinking coffee moaning how hard things are when others are virtual slaves working until they drop

[Livia]

It's quite mad to think that any charity runs with 100% of the donations reaching those it's meant to. I feel really sorry for this woman having all these harsh words said about her without anyone knowing the whole story. It's outrage journalism.

[Kizzy]

If she has given up her job to help run a foundation in memory of her wonderful dad then that's admirable. Do people expect her to do it for nothing?

Thanks to this there won't be as many donations so all his good work will have been for nothing. We can all go back to giving our money no questions asked to bail out royals.

Close the “charity” and give the money to a real charity.

She was on ITV this morning at
the start.

She claims her own business loaned the Charity the Money
that got paid back to her. (£50K)

She said the £150,000 amount is not true.

[Cherie]

The accounts should be pretty clear then

Tone it down why don't you... It is only clear to you because you obviously haven't got a full grasp on the topic.

I still want to know who paid for the whole pig herd of a family to swan off to Barbados while people were dying.

[UserSince2005]

Watched the Interview, pretty clear to me that she was going for the 150k but got caught and so now is saying it was always just hypothetical.

[UserSince2005]

"weve put over £41m into Charity", what so you deserve a bit of pay back? and that wasnt your money that was the gullible public's money.
I would love to know how much money the family have actually given to charity over the past years. I can bet that they have taken more than they have given.

When I saw the headline . I didn't realise it was his own family.
