Oh no - the Guardian quoting former PM Cameron as though he's right! That's a first!

What are all those charity CEOs going to do?

Says a tax cheat rag. AllLivesMattter

Must be great news then.

Got to be a big blow to the CASH GUZZLING CEOs. Unfortunately They will still rake in the dosh while the volunteers will be cast aside

Brexiteers every one,

It’s no distraction it’s the delivery of a promise to Brexiters to curtail the foreign aid budget.
