    British donations top £32m mark (BBC News)

    Following this post, I’m now slightly happier to report that Mr Blair has now increased the amount of aid sent to the affected region to £50m. But that’s still nowhere near enough to rebuild tens of thousands of families. It’s clearly a lot better though, and it does make us the biggest international donors.

    I’m astounded at the response from the great British public - over £32m has already been donated. This completely unprecedented level of fundraising begins to restore my faith in humanity.

    Just a shame TB’s still on holiday, and not on hand to lead the nation.
