    I wonder from time to time how many “charities” there are that exist whose biggest outgoing is the wage of the person who set up the “charity”.

      Charities have such a weak definition in the U.K, for example Nuffield Health is a “Charity” but you’d be incredibly hard pressed to point out something charitable, it’s basically a £1B private medical club that doesn’t pay tax.

      I don’t think there should be barriers to entry for small charities, but we should be able to assess how much actually makes it to the “cause” at a glance.
