When a young man earning money, the ‘common man/ woman’ can only dream of, uses his prominent position in life to publicise the shocking reality of child poverty in the UK, we know that there is a light somewhere in this land.
I never understand why a car driver (F1), golfer or singer can earn £20m+ a year and be lauded only for a lad from a council estate who kicks a football can earn £5m+ a year and be vilified. Yes all these sums of money are vulgar but I’d prefer it went into the pocket of the lad than the suit in the stand.
Fair play to you Marcus
