Is this where we've got to?

People stopping donations because the 'wrong' nationality of people are drowning.

The RNLI have responded with an excellent statement:

https://rnli.org/news-and-media/2019/september/15/information-about-the-rnlis-in

Here are two specific responses from them:

Why are the RNLI funding burkinis?

The Panje Project teaches women swim survival skills in Zanzibar. The burkini, which is a full length swim suit is an innovative (and cheap) way of enabling girls in strict Muslim countries, to get into the water without compromising their cultural and religious beliefs. The RNLI have been involved in the Panje Project with the majority of the RNLI’s involvement funded by a donor who specifically wanted the money to go towards this project.

Why is the RNLI getting involved in creches?

The Creches for Bangladesh programme helps reduce children’s risk of drowning by ensuring they have close supervision throughout the day. Around 40 children a day die from drowning in Bangladesh.

Children are most vulnerable to drowning between 9am and 1pm when parents must work to feed their families, and are unable to provide close supervision. Community-based creche facilities provide a safe environment for children aged between 1-4. Run by local women, these facilities provide a secure place away from open water for children to play and learn important skills.

Access to a free creche place reduces a child’s risk of drowning by an incredible 82%, as well as providing essential early childhood development. We work in partnership with the Centre for Injury Prevention and Research Bangladesh (CIPRB), who are experts in injury prevention and drowning prevention. Alongside CIPRB we have already helped to fund 10,000 creche places for some of Bangladesh’s most vulnerable children. All public donations to our recent appeal were matched by the Department for International Development.


Bangladesh is mostly at sea level or below and floods are getting more serious, but "40 children" a day die by drowning? Well done the RNLI for saving lives and not rolling over when attacked by The Times and the Daily Mail.

Poll: Who should be our next manager? Please name them.

So not only does their work save the lives of young kids, the money donated is used to lever match funding. You’d have to be a bit of an arsehole to not think that’s a good use of money and leadership on RNLI’s part. Playing a leading role in the World; I though that’s what ‘making Britain great again’ and ‘Global Britain’ were all about?

Some small minded people out there.

The number of people like you who are now claiming they’ve financially supported the RNLI is incredible. They must have money coming out of their ears.

Hopefully none of you never go on holiday, get into difficulty in the water, and find there aren’t rescue services in operation because the RNLI stopped providing training for the local people due to you cutting funding.

Of course, you’ve spent the past three years telling us that you are internationalists - that’s why you don’t want the EU to stop you from working with all these other countries. Apart from obviously saving children from drowning in those countries. That’s a waste of your money.

Money that is donated to the RNLI should be spent in this country.
Whether saving an American or Australian or British life.
And to answer your question directly, I’d put the British above and before anyone else. (Apart from the snowflakes)

I have made donations to the RNLI in the past, including raising money through running the Barcelona marathon. Never again. Maybe you should make a large donation.

So you’d spite their efforts to help save lives in the UK because they share their expertise abroad?
