Sadly I had to absolutely refuse to donate to RNLI a few weeks ago in Morpeth. After telling them my sis in law had just passed and left her detached house in Newcastle to them ( they helped her dads ship over 70 years ago)plus, my husband had a standing order to them for forty years, one of the first things I did when he died was cancel his standing order. I told them the RNLI was NOT set up to be a one way free taxi ride to mobile phone waving illegals who can afford an expensive place on a dinghy. The two charity workers just looked at each other and nodded - obviously not the first time they’d heard it. An elderly guy passing commented “well said pet”. So I’m waiting for Armistice Day when we see a photo of our great soldiers who stayed forever young for us and I shall post this alongside a photo of these dinghy migrants with a ‘balloon’ of them saying thank you for making Britain great for us. If FB don’t like it - so be it.
