should we rename oxfam - oxsham ?

should we rename oxfam - oxsham ? 11.02.18
 
please is all i ask
just going to extend the humble hand
we are transparent with no mask
if help is needed we will land.
every world crisis
we will fight with out hesitation
no corruption or any vices
help is available to everyone in every nation.
we need publicity
have to advertise
the pocket is as deep as infinity
it could now be the ultimate demise.
you workers that abused
it is the ultimate betrayal
a bit like the village and now being defused
oxfam in highgate is set to derail.
getting your leg over
it is going to be a costly scam
you treated all of us like ben dover
it will finish you all at oxsham.

Someone l know, always referred to Oxfam as ‘Harrods’ for the prices they charge!!

There is an Oxfam book shop in the town and local booksellers are fed up that they are losing out to them.

No doubt, like many others, I find it astounding and disgusting that sexual abuse is happening in this and maybe other aid organisations. It will be a serious blow if it's found that the money used for these prostitutes was money from the organisation.

And the article suggests that they may have paedophiles within these organisations too. A shocking revelation. They are parasitic, opportunist scum, if what they suggest is true.

I stopped supporting Oxfam years ago, they became too political and corporate in their approach.

This kind of thing is not restricted to Oxfam. When you live where the big charities work, it´s somewhat of an eye opener to what goes on.

I stopped supporting Oxfam years ago when they imported expensive Italian marble to make a fascia for their office building!

I hope this doesn't mean that the oxfam charity shops will close. They are so handy for getting rid of stuff.

I once went for an interview for a big children's charity. It was for a marketing post. They were based in a tall shiny office block with smoked glass mirrored lifts. Lots of chrome, soft lighting and deep pile carpets. The job was all about schmoozing up to potential "donors". Really changed my view of "charity".
