There are too many voices of hatred and ignorance on social media bullying the RNLI, making racist claims, and claiming to be pushing for a "boycott" of the institution, as if "boycotting" a lifesaving service were either possible or wise. 

I'm saying enough is enough. If your idea is to let people drown, then you are on the wrong side of legality, morality, and ethics. So, I'm mounting a COUNTER-BOYCOTT to show that good people around the country and around the world still care and that we can give more money than these haters and naysayers ever did. 

This comes out of a discussion I had on Twitter wherein some guy who dislikes the RNLI basically said I couldn't or wouldn't raise the paltry sum of £150. Well, Captain Dan and his wide network can do better. 

Too many people are still drowning. More than ever we need the RNLI’s help. As a charity, the RNLI depends on our donations so it can go on saving lives and keeping us and our loved ones safe. RNLI lifesavers are our lifeline. They’re the lifeboat crews who provide 24-hour search and rescue right around the UK and Ireland. The lifeguards keeping watch on 240 of the busiest beaches in the UK and Channel Islands. And the RNLI safety teams and educators working tirelessly to stop people getting into trouble in the first place.

Thank you. Stay safe out there and let's annoy all the right people.
