IT has been reported that the latest Lottery cash distribution for 'good causes' is to go to gay and lesbian projects, including a lesbian circus.
Whoever singles out the causes the money goes to has no idea of good causes which need it.
To give £15,000 to gays and lesbians is beyond belief when there are causes such as cancer research, the Heart Foundation, the blind, multiple sclerosis, etc.
People are collecting money to buy a Scanner for the hospital. This Lottery money should have been given to a cause like that.
People should boycott the Lottery until someone with sense is put in charge and gets the priorities right.
