Sadly very true but it is the way of the world now, only thing to do is have the most up to date security available on the computer and change your login details and passwords frequently.Quote:

I wonder if Corbyn donates to a good charity,
Bliar does and so does Gordon Brown.
Brown puts all his earnings into His own charity and takes £12,500 a week out for his expenses. and so does Bliar with his Blair Foundation.
Because Putting Money into a charity is Tax Deductible, and so these Two Good Socialists avoid Paying Income Tax. I pay more Tax on my Pension than they do on their MILLIONS.
AGAIN VERY GOOD SOCIALISTS.

Hi shipmates, Charitys who owns them? what are they worth? the Big 7, But the main question is what do they spend per year? How many people bother to check up? Most people who give to charity DO NOT.
Hi Louis,

EXPENDITURE
In 2016/17 we spent a total of £666 million using money raised during this financial year plus extra money gained, for example through investments.
We spent £473 million on all of our work to help beat cancer.
This includes:
•£432 million towards research. We spent around two-thirds of this on research into specific types of cancer and a third on research into cancer biology, which underpins all types of cancer. This money was spent across research sites, awards and support costs.
•£41 million spent on our policy and information activities. This includes prevention and early diagnosis work; campaigning; communicating health messages; and engaging patients, the public and health professionals.
We spent £108 million on fundraising.
This includes marketing to engage new supporters and innovation to develop new ways to raise money, to make sure we can continue our research in the future.
We spent £85 million running our shop network and events.
This includes:
•£69 million on goods, rent, electricity and salaries of our shop managers. Our shops are a more expensive way of fundraising but they are important to keep in touch with our supporters throughout the UK.
•£16 million to deliver events which have a registration fee, like Race for Life

If anyone is in charge of a budget of over £650,000,000 I guess that £280,000 is nothing.
