Oh dear, oh dear, the yearly UK red nose, 'dig deep folks' scam is here again. Yet again we must endure BBC's highly paid TV presenters and celebrities complete with their camera teams sent abroad at no doubt enormous expense to generate viewers' guilt with the usual panoramas of fly-encrusted ill babies amid filthy garbage clogged shanty towns. Year after year for decades we are shown these images but still the shanty towns continue to exist with their current poverty-struck occupants, so where have all the years of generous donations gone, and why are their own governments failing the shanty dwellers so abysmally? My sympathies go out to suffering folks wherever I see them, but oh I do get tired of the endless laid-on guilt trips inflicted upon we the British public by the Media every time there is a disaster somewhere on the planet. Millionaires, billionaires, multi-billionaires galore arrogantly swan about the world (how on Earth does one man become a multi-billionaire whilst another man barely survives in grinding poverty?), apparently there is always available money swilling about

the world when governments require military might to be updated and to fight wars, until of course banks need to be rescued by tax-payers from the casino style banks' self-inflicted, bonus-enhanced plights. Third World countries can have their national debts cancelled out at the stroke of a pen by the World Bank but the great British public whether they've prudently avoided living on credit or not are expected to foot the bill each and every time. We all know we live or exist on a planet consisting of a ball of very hot molten magma covered by a relatively thin layer of cracked congealed buckling rock, so why when the powerful elite remorselessly work towards globalisation isn't there a global emergency fund poised and always ready to completely cover the costs of disaster rescue and rebuilding work as and when needed any where in the world? Instead the disaster and poverty-trapped victims always have to feel they are the recipients of charity, assuming they ever receive any of the donations that we are always urged to dig so deep into our pockets to provide?
