Just a quick blog today, as I have just got home from work, tired after a busy day. I wanted however to say a few words about the CEO of Oxfam and his response to the growing crisis at Oxfam. It seems that Mr Goldring has failed to understand the gravity of the charges laid at his door. Mr Goldring is quoted as saying he struggles to comprehend 'the ferocity of the attack' on his organisation. accusing voices of decent of 'gunning' for Oxfam, as part of an anti aid agenda.
In an interview with The Guardian newspaper My Goldring said: “The intensity and the ferocity of the attack makes you wonder, what did we do? “We murdered babies in their cots? Certainly, the scale and the intensity of the attacks feels out of proportion to the level of culpability. I struggle to understand it. You think, ‘My God, there’s something going on there."
When I read his remarks, I was astonished by his reaction, like many others. Conservative MP, Nigel Evans, who sits on the international Development Committee spoke for many, when he told the Times newspaper, Mr Goldring was part of the problem. He warned, Oxfam is facing obliteration if it didn't change. My sentiments exactly Mr Evans. I can't tell you how shocked I was to read these disgusting, inappropriate comments. What an absolute slap in the face, to everyone who are victims of Oxfam's continual abuse, bullying, harassment and victimisation.
After speaking to an ex Oxfam colleague tonight, I felt it right to voice my opinion over this matter. I have been trying to limit my blog entries on this charity, for my own health and sanity, but once again this discredited CEO and those he represents ignores the plight of all of us who have suffered at their hands. He really has no idea just how bad these allegations are. He is oblivious to the abuse me and others agonized over and he has been blind to what has been going on, under his very nose. It is about time this man resigned; he is not showing Oxfam or the World anything but arrogance and contempt.
The people who work at Oxfam House live in a bubble. They do not understand the concerns of their employees, volunteers and donators and clearly think it is OK to behave in the scandlous manner they have. The British Government should strip Oxfam of their charitable status, so the rest of us can finally breath a huge sigh of relief, drawing a line under this sorry episode. It is time to end this fiasco in the corridors of Oxfam House!
