Oxfam GB also stated recently a baby bottle is "an object that 
represents motherhood" and refused to either accept that a baby bottle 
was an unacceptable image in a video they helped make, promoting the end 
to world hunger and poverty, or to refute their response-to-complaints 
statement that it is "an object that represents motherhood".

If you are sending money to Oxfam GB, you need to consider their 
attitude to baby bottles, and their disregard of baby bottle deaths.  
Many of the other Oxfam groups, similarly echoed the sentiment that 
having a baby bottle to represent motherhood in such a video, was Not A 
Big Deal.  It's in light of this, that Oxfam USA are offering baby 
bottles in their unwrapped presents.

Oxfam GB also tried to use Baby Milk Action's name, as a 'defence' of 
their actions - without mentioning it to Baby Milk Action.
