Concur completely. A question to all you cynics out there re his motives. Other than a second stab at the EU presidency (a bit of long shot) TB can have no ambitions to run for public office so why would he want to boost his popularity at a cost of £4.6m minimum? If the GBP won't buy his book you can bet that the US sales will up this figure. My family and I have been Poppy sellers for years and we will never match the financial contribution of this donation so good on him, whatever his rationale.
