You don't get it back, you get a part of it back. It's stupid not to claim it - think of it as the government kicking in extra towards your donation. If you want to feel all morally superior about it, and it seems you do, then just kick in even more money to make up for that money you'll get back.

It's nothing to do with feeling morally superior. I will donate as much as I can spare regardless, it's got nothing to do with my Government. If the Government is inundated with tax claims due to charity, they just make it up elsewhere. Why rob Peter to pay Paul?
