“Red noses…
They are plastic and we buy 6-7 million of them each year!!! The worst bit about it is that you pay £1.25 and only 65p of that goes to comic relief. Buy something useful instead I.e a t-shirt or better still avoid the ‘stuff’ and donate the entire £1.25 (and more if you can afford to) by texting or ringing.
Huge amounts of waste and unnecessary paraphernalia. It’s a fab cause but actually the people who will suffer most from climate change are being supported by money which is spent on things that are causing it! Ironic!”
