I don't really see the problem.

What Geldof does for charity, even if it is for altuistic reasons, does some good. He has a living and a family to keep like everyone else. If people are daft enough to pay him vast amounts of money to hear him drone on, good luck to the git.

No one berates footballers for the vast amount of money they can earn in the Premiership, or expect them to be any more charitable than anyone else. Although they do probably keep the luxury retail market bouyant.

Off to kiss the Blarney stone, and see if I can sign up for a tour of trailer parks now.
