With the National lottery draw seeing a 14th successive rollover with an estimated jackpot of £50.4 million, is it not time for this huge prize figure to be reduced to a more respectable figure, and the excess to be granted to a British charity, such as this?

No, use the overseas monies that we send to terrorist Country's instead.

As for the big payout. It should be divided so more people win, rather than somebody, or one or two winning that huge amount.

I think £50.4M is a very respectable figure.
