In the week in which Sir Bob Geldof was bemoaning the proliferation of charity shops in town centres in Britain, especially in the town in which he lives (presumably because he's sick of seeing his old cast-off shirts which no human being in their right mind would buy)...
In the week in which Sir Bob harkened back to the good old days when such shops were small businesses (i.e. where have all the independent sweet shops/tobacconists/toy shops/pawnbrokers gone?)....
In the week in which we proved ourselves to be the most generous nation on earth by giving all our disposable income to victims of the Asian tsunami (didn't need a sanctimonious song, just a rising death toll on 24 hour news).....
Hold on, maybe we do need a sanctimonious song sung by say Christian of the millennium Sir Cliff Richard and written by failed Cliffalike shit-dj Mike Read which might raise a few quid more than Maxine Carr rattling a children's charity tin on any UK high street...
Jesus...
