Ron Bell’s donations warcry

Hi, my name is Ron Bell

I can’t believe I missed this video which came out about a week ago.

It’s seriously lacking views so I thought I’d do Ron the massive favour (don’t worry Ron, I’m not asking for donations) of giving him some exposure.

I know I have criticized Ron in the past due to his financial associations and that he’s been very very quiet on just about everything, but at least he is now making an effort to build some momentum with his campaign, and I applaud that.

Sadly his donations and campaign plea is another dire and downbeat snooze-fest that is either heavily scripted or Mr Bell really talks with long pauses between sentences. I guess I could find out by dialling his campaign hotline on 01253 766997 (if you want to stuff envelopes for him or help his campaign, get on the blower).

Here are my recommendations, Ron.

Lose the tie that looks like it’s strangling you, unbutton your shirt and get some gold chains. Read your script a few times so you know it off by heart or put some post it notes with keywords behind your camera. Use conjunctions. Assume a posture that doesn’t look like you’re lying down or strapped into some orthopaedic chair. We also need to see some hands.

I would have laughed if the video had been in the style of one of those 90′s chatline adverts; you know, “Donate!! On 0891 50 50 50!” with techno music in the background and people dancing.

It should also be noted that Ron’s relaxation CD is still available.
