However he did manage to persuade Gordon Brown and other political leaders to write off billions yes thats billions not just thousands or millions of pounds of debt owed simply on interest on third world debt.

You seriously think they wrote those loans off just because he asked them to? Those loans were never gonna be paid anyways, as everybody knew, so really it was just a superficial gesture. They were all just basking in phoney glory.

As for not knowing what he does/doesn't give; if he gave substantial amounts we'd hear about it one way or another. Huge money doesnt get shifted around that quietly. And with all the flack he's had about this issue I doubt he'd want to keep it all that hush hush.
