Last day for downloads to get it to No.1
It sure beats normalising food banks and promoting YouTube and pop star careers on the back of starving children and deprivation.

OK, the self-promotion charge is fair.
In fact, it's equally as fair as it would be to level at "Kunt".
How is giving money to a charity "normalising food banks", though?

Dunno but I was listening to that Nick Abbott last night
and someone had texted in saying they wouldn't vote Labour because Labour say they want to scrap food banks, and they need food banks to feed their kids.

Oh soz.
Monkeon's point is better made.
My point was that food banks are already normalised, and campaigns to end them are seen, by some misguided idiots, as an attack on the poor.

I believe the argument is that
if people support food banks without also calling out the cause of food banks then it allows a government to ignore the problem as charity will cover it.
Part of the Trussell Trust's work is to "campaign for change to end the need for food banks in the UK", which I believe people like Ed Sheeran and LadBaby will be too media trained and publicly apolitical to mention as part of this campaign.

Presumably "Kunt" is avoiding this problem
by being opaque about how much of his royalties, if any, he'll be giving to charity. I trust someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

He's not claiming it's for charity, though, is he?
To announce that would turn it into a charity single.
To be honest, I think LadBaby is more thick than deliberate about it, and presumably he's got the number one in the bag (bag! like a Greggs bag! rofl) but quite amusing that he'd mention the opposition and give the publicity.

Whether the Kunt chooses to give a penny to charity or not is entirely up to him. He has to eat three times a day and pay the rent like the rest of us.
I'm sick to death of this "it's for charity, therefore it's sacrosanct" argument.

That wasn't my point.
The OP seemed to be implying that "Kunt" has a purer motive than "LadBaby"/John/Sheeran, on the basis that the latter are shamelessly promoting themselves.
My point is that the whole lot of them are shamelessly promoting themselves, including "Kunt". If one lot are giving the proceeds to charity and the other may not be, it doesn't look to me like he's got a purer motive - he's only in it to promote himself, whereas at least the others are making at least a gesture at altruism.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not supporting any of them. Elton was last good in the 1980s, and I'd be quite happy if Sheeran, "LadBaby" and "Kunt" all fucked off into obscurity and stopped wasting everyone's time with their pointless existences.

Listen carefully to the lyrics
They might give you a clue as to Kunt's motives and the reason for our continuing reliance on food banks. Charities picking up the tab instead of the state - it's a Tory's wet dream.

I suspect it
is primarily a novelty record done for the laughs, rather than an actual attempt to raise awareness.
LadBaby's mistake of engaging gave him a good PR angle which seems to have worked.

It all looks like a cynical cash grab to me, but I'm quite a cynical cunt myself. Especially at Christmas.

The back is the safest place, statistically.
But no, it'd be terrifying.
An old work mate of mine had a pilot's licence and used to have to rent a light aircraft to keep up his air-hours. Flying with him in a dinky little single prop plane taught me a lot about the aerodynamics - coming in to land with the prop hardly turning, seeing the wings wobble and flex... All very normal.
I've been a much more comfortable flyer ever since.
