Sam,
From the context, I think Deryck meant "all the
money we (the whole of
WIkimedia) raise (through the fundraiser) will nominally pass
through the
FDC". I took him to be saying that every pound which WMUK raises
independently reduces by a pound the amount we would be requesting from the
FDC. In that sense, we don't "steal" donors, just direct their
contributions through a different channel that may attract an extra 25% in
Gift Aid.
Have another read and see if you agree with my understanding.
Regards,

I believe you have been misinformed. Funds raised independently of the
projects
and site banners are not passed through the FDC nor counted in revenue
sharing.
Because fundraising independence is a good thing.
