Happy to sign...one of these 'teams' was working Kendal the other week...they catch your arm and literally accuse you of ignoring helping wounded soldiers from Afganistan. If you're too slow they hit you for a fiver for a single ticket...they wear combat trousers to give it a military feel but the one I questioned fessed up that he had never served and worked for a pro money collecting firm in Manchester.

They need to be honest about how much of that fiver, if any, goes to any wounded soldier and back off from the hard sell.

Done. I've had enough of these tosser's who pressurise the population while getting paid by some parasitic b'stards who are skimming off the top of whatever they collect. I only donate directly and never give any thing to tin rattlers except the RBL, RAFA, RAFBF and H4H

 

[ninjarabbi]

Done. There seem to be more of these parasitic organisations than Eastern European Big Issue sellers these days!

Thanks guys for signing and sharing.
If you would like to support a registered charity which donates 100% of their collections and do all work voluntarily for the good of serving and veteran servicemen please feel free to have a look at the ARMED FORCES BIKERS.
Any bikers who fancy some good old military banter find your area and come meet the guys and girls at some of the many events we attend all over the UK.

While trying to fill some time before jetting away last week on holiday we ended up in an asda in doncaster, Sat in the entrance was a table with the pilgrim bandits collecting.

And who was sat at the side of the table? None other than Ben Parkinson, what a legend, still sharp as a tack and great sense of humour. Made my day just to shake his hand and even got a photo with the guy (not posting it here as its got the wife and little un in it)
