OK, so you're a shareholder in Co-op Bank and they say to you . .
'Sorry, but we 'effed up big time and need £400m to get us out of the shit.'
Do you go on in the hope it can be sorted or sell your shares at whatever price you can get?
I read the news today oh boy! Page 1,473

I would urge them to invest in topless frackers using drills made out of badgers. Caroline Lucas may not like it, but at the end of the day, money is money and everything is else is just words.

Well, first you sharpen your axe, then you track down the bastards responsible, then ... Well, you get the picture. If somebody did that, it might concentrate the minds of similar incompetents/bastards.

Shit, I know this read well - between Tak and Mae Sot. A ludicrous 2-way road - which is two car-widths wide - on the edge of a sheer cliff, with under-slept truck drivers hurtling down from the Myanmar border.
Awful.
Max Clifford looks more and more like a Spitting Image puppet.

It turns out that loads of people donated money to the wrong charity during the recent No Make Up Selfies vanity fest.
I suppose when your main motivation is to put up a picture of yourself and await flattering responses such as: 'Wow, you look even more beautiful without make up' - getting the proper details for donations is secondary in your mind.
They must feel such idiots for helping out Unicef.
I ended up giving to unicif
Who'd, have a toilet cleaner not only had a trade union, but a charity a well.
What the heck are they doing with my money.

Unicef is working out a way of giving the tit money to the cancer charities. Because Western old lady boobs are more important then starving Africans. I mean, duh.
I avoid the dilemma by only giving to starving children with breast cancer.

Young women die of breast cancer, too, sometimes leaving behind babies and young children. Don't think it's possible to compare tragedies and decide one is more deserving.

Not only is it possible, it happens on a daily basis. As sootyj has pointed out, more deserving causes are thrown by the wayside because they don't attract the same level of empathetic support from the public.
Once mad old ladies start leaving money to autism sufferers instead of cats, then I will agree with your estimations.
