Sure RB could help out now with a 300k input - but what about in another 3 months time and we find ourselves back in the same situation?
Russell fucking Brand isn't the reason why, in month 3, tPV doesn't have any cash to operate moving forward. The reason is that the decisions made when they hit the 300K bonanza were ill-judged and ill-advised.
Regardless of who's to blame, those mistakes need to be learned from quickly if this is to survive. Survival now must be the main aim - people have donated thousands of pounds. It's not about blindly following a plan - its the survival of the idea.
If tPV is not instantly scaled back, it's plans reformed, and ideas radically reshaped, then I fear the donations will have been for nothing.
However much targeted kicking, screaming and emotionally charged rhetoric is emitted...those are the facts.

You make some very, very good points. If TPV folds, then, I hate to say it, it's because it's not really what the People want. Otherwise, they would be donating in their millions. And yes, I donate monthly.
I do get rather downbeat when I see that fuckwit zionazi Edwina Currie invited on again to TPV to discuss her "opinions" about shit. Who gives a fuck what she has to say? We know what she fucking thinks!!
Whilst I'm about it, TPV should provide some kind of focus on getting us all together to amass a groundswell of action on the different issues. Provide a way of taking appropriate, lawful action together or at least get a cohesive, focussed action right where it needs to be.
It's all very well showing folk stuff to get pissed off about, but IMHO TPV needs to provide suggestions on how to get involved and what might have some impact in changing things, rather than simply informing folk how shite everything is and leaving them in a pile of seething anger and fed-upness behind their keyboards. They need to do this in a non subtle and obvious way!
I want the names and addresses of the people who are fucking us all over, I want the lawful avenues of recourse laid open and for us all to get behind and make a difference. The PV should help us all focus our energies on making the best impact possible in the best possible way. Just my opinion of course, but I feel that as a donor, I should at least have my say.
** In fact, I think The People's Voice should be a movement, not just a TV station.
