what does any one else think about this ???

all the best marie065


Great idea, I wouldn't mind donating a few quids. I don't think I'd be happy though if it affected how your status appeared on the site. Not everyone is in a position to donate. Givers might feel they have to give preference to donators, and new members may feel under pressure to donate. It could in fact put some people off who may only access this site to Give on a once off basis, if they get the impression that they have to also donate.


As for the Green Party, Unapam, I think you're on the right track, so I've emailed them a link to Jumbletown and to this thread in particular.
