Fucling world gone mad .. noooo:  Just had to point out the irony...

"He should have a day like Guy Falks..."  ..

.that Guy Fawkes was a failed terriorist technically ... noooo:
Or was he a 'freedom fighter'?
He might have got away with it, but for that stupid hat which made him stand out like a Mujihadeen.

So when you become an evil overlord your minions of terror will have average looking helmets with clear plexiglass visors that don't stand out...  rubschin:
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

And for employing herself, husband and friends on fat salaries through a front company.  Said to have paid out more in administration costs than used for good causes.

 noooo:
We'd be an awful world without charities but so much in the world of charity is sus.  I didn't realise it until someone I knew was effectively fired and next thing ended up as a £100k+ head of a very well known charity.  They fired him too. 
 
Donkey Sanctuary does a lot of good but its head gets over £140k https://www.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk/sites/uk/files/2021-10/_report-and-accounts-2020.pdf 
 
And the Charity Commission has bugger all power and isn't allowed to proactively act.
 

 
Well, whatever, nevermind
