Sir Ian Wood: Send your £50 Million to Africa As Promised!

This petition was published by Suzanne Kelly on Aug 29, 2012

Dear Sir Ian,

Your offer of a 'gift' of £50,000,000 to Aberdeen City Council was generous - but it had too many strings; you would not accept any compromise but to build over our Common Good Land, putting up a web with no relation to existing architecture, which would irretrievably damage the environment.

You told the press (Press & Journal February 2012) you would send your £50,000,000 to Africa if we turned down the granite web. Well, we turned down the granite web.

You changed your story: you are keeping your offer on the table for a year.

Please, for the benefit of our city, now divided by your scheme - but mostly for the benefit of people in truly desperate situations in Africa - send your money to Africa without delay. There is far more real good you can do there, and your generosity would save lives.

Thank you for considering this request - and hopefully acting on it sooner than later.
