It amazes me, how instinctive supposed eligible state representants can get. "Mine's bigger than yours."

Well, as long as they pile up more and more real donations for the victims, it shall be right.

S'all b0ll0x - government aid get's lost in consultant fees, red tape and being misdirected to party croneys. Best solution - charge us less tax and we'll pay more to charities, safe that it'll mostly go where it should, and not be filtrated by our beloved, bureaucratic, parasitic, idealistic, socialist heap of a government - judging by the gfovernment's slow response, the only aid they're really interested in giving is to pay the good old boys in run- down, "deprived" areas of the UK to keep them run down and voting Labour. Hillary Benn is worse than his father, Benn senior stuck to his flawed politics, Benn junior is juat a populist vote grabbing Blairite bu11sh1tter.
