I think you have answered your own question, he's not actually a very rich man but he is a prosperous member of the professional classes, i.e. barrister, DPP and now PM. Accepting donations means he doesn't have to spend his own taxed money like the rest of us so he remains prosperous. Don't forget the upto £115k annual allowance he can claim when he stops being PM and the generous pension he will get. He's going to live on freebies for the res of his life.

I dont have a problem with this as it frees up space so those who cant afford PI have access to good health care. So why doesnt this guy put his hand in his pocket, pay insurance to free up space for the more needy.
