The Madeleine McCann Company...

In light of a vast £2m being spent (so far) on the Scotland Yard review and goodness knows how much in Portugal, don't you find it absolutely appalling and in very bad taste that the McCanns are once again publicly attempting to boost the balance of the Madeleine Fund?

Now why do they need more money? Gerry McCann still consults both for the NHS and in private healthcare. A hefty sum was apparently made from Kate McCann's book 'Madeleine' which will no doubt be boosted by the recently released paperback version. It has also been reported that Edgar has whoosh clunked and no longer works for the McCanns. With ongoing reviews in both the UK and Portugal, it surely must be a relief for the McCanns to no longer have to claim that 'no law enforcement agency is looking for Madeleine'?

So why do they need more money? It's a smack in the face to every taxpayer and every officer working on the review teams.

In order to make money, companies normally offer a service or sell items to keep that company running. For many it's their liveliehood, they work hard to put food on their tables and a roof over their heads. The McCanns business offers nothing. This pair are content to simply sit on their backsides, and reap in the cash by offering nothing but a Paypal button or bank account number to the unsuspecting public. To run their company, they expect money to simply be given to them as if it's their right.

Now that they intend to slink back into the limelight with the proverbial begging bowl, it really is time for it to be publicly made clear that this 'fund' is not a charity or a search fund for a missing child - it is the McCanns own company, their own business! Like any other business, it needs to make money. However, it is a business that is being used for other means including costs in their many legal battles. Thanks to the McCanns, legal eagles such as Carter Ruck, Isabel Duarte, Rogerio Alves and many more have become a household name. All these lawyers employed in the UK and Portugal, yet the McCanns only employ one private investigator, Dave Edgar.

Their pathetic priorities are very clear, as is the real need to 'fundraise'.

When visiting Praia de Luz, they lurk in the shadows. They don't appeal or speak to the Portuguese public - people who helped them so much in the early days and who lost time and money out of the goodness of their own hearts. In the last five years, I've seen the McCanns show more passion for litigation than appeals to their missing daughter or her so called 'abductor'

It's about time this loathesome charade came to an end. Five years on... how many more?

Sad, but undeniably true.

Many thanks for this article from 'thepottingshedder'.

It may be that donations have lessened as time time has gone by and dare I say this could also be why they are not inclined to use the progressed picture of Madeleine because it doesn't pull the heart strings as the picture of her in the red dress.

They must be receiving payments for all the interviews and media articles so money is still flowing to them. I can't imagine why they need more for "searching" - it just makes it obvious their only concern is money.

Cameron is in enough hot water but when this "Review" ends with no new leads and the Portugese Police exonerated from any blame, the Public will have something to say I am sure.

They have been brainwashed to feel sorry for the McCanns, but not any more.

Panda,

Yes, after RB's evidence I think they'll be asking themselves why is this case out of so many should attract the editor of one of the nation's most infamous papers to all but in name, blackmail the Prime Minister into a review.

I don't know about you lot, but even if I hadn't been following this case for the last few years, after hearing about the help and high level interference at Leveson yesterday, I would be having a damn good look at all the stuff online. I don't think that kind of interest is going to help them garner new supporters. Quite the opposite.

Morning Alfiefinn, I Have posted on the Murdoch thread interviews this morning , one ex-Correspondent from the Sun, worth a read. Obviously the Press have picked up on the LOL but Cameron will never serve another Term as PM but the Opposition leaves much to be desired. I'm going to polish up my
Political skills and form a new Political Party "NO MORE B*****IT".......think I'll win ????

I'll vote for your mandate!

I've had enough of being treated as a mushroom.

Badboy, the days are long gone when prospective Candidates knocked on doors , I had a mass of leaflets posted through my letterbox, very surprised at the number of Foreign Candidates on the Lists in the recent Council Vote......not one bothered to knock, Jehovahs Witnesses do more canvassing.

I AGREED ,JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES DO MORE CANVASSING.
SLIGHTLY OFF TOPIC, I SAW A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS CALLED BRIAN KENNEDY TALKING ABOUT HIS BID FOR RANGERS?

Not our Brian Kennedy, he is a Mason and his bid failed.

The NEW meaning for LOL on twitter ..Lying on Leveson!!!!!

Not sure if you're joking Panda (apologies if you are!) but this is indeed the windows man. Link with acknowledgement to the Jill Havern site.

No , I wasn't joking, Ed Smethurst is also a Mason. Brian Kennedy was in a consortium with two others when Rangers brought in tthe Administrators
and their bid failed. The last I read was Brian Kennedy renaged on a repayment of a huge loan to RBS and another £7 million Loan to I think either a
Canadian Bank or Australian Bank . I thought at the time this may have been the reason his bid was turned down.This was several weeks ago.

Just read the link, thanks, I read that Smethurst owns an Apartment in PDL .

Oh it WAS our Brian Kennedy, on Sky news yesterday talking about the Rangers bid. He said he wasn't sure the guy they'd chosen (prefered bid) was the right person to take the club forward. Sour grapes maybe?

I didn't see the sky news wjk, but Kennedy is a rogue. He has 26 Companies, mostly" Holding" and had two struck off for not producing Accounts.

The loan to RBS was I'm sure £200 million and I would imagine Everest Double Glazing is losing money because Houses are not being Built. I can't
remember the name of the Company Weathershield maybe? anyway, several hundred people had paid deposits for the windows to be installed and the
Company went bust leaving them all stranded. I have never believed that Kennedy bankrolled the Expenses of NSU unless it was in his interest. Why do
you think Smethurst , Kennedy,s Corporate Lawyer, is a Director of NSU.?

Oh he's definitely a rogue, Panda, without a doubt.
No wonder Rangers FC don't want to touch his bid!

Here he is yesterday Panda.
