Claiming money from a reg. charity.

It goes without saying that with people with a genuine need should, and do, get appropriate help from the state.

Your gentleman friend is far from having a genuine need - around some £60,000 away from it, from what you say.

There has never been a promise nor a law that entitled people to be benevolent when at the same time they would need public money to pay for their care.

Well Quite.
And I don't see how anyone could take a politicians promise to mean the state will support everyone, irrespective of their means, so they can give their own money to someone else.
