Thereby putting C'mons somewhat skewed & dogmatic view of "Wicked Tory grasping chiefs of industry" being all about profit ahead of humanity.
Nope you're missing the point completely..there is zero volunteering occurring here...one man is being paid, one company is offsetting this pay against tax.

The charity has an extra body for a day, the company is profiting from the tax break and Neil is providing the humanity...he is being paid, albeit indirectly, by the taxpayer.

You still sure that Cmon is wrong? Who has the profit here, who has the humanity and who is paying?
