Email to the Missing People Charity

I can think of some 40+ questions I would like to ask the newly appointed ambassador, I would not hold my breath for a reply.

I feel sick and disgusted.

The following is the complaint i sent, i do hope it sounds ok as i was a bit rushed and so so angry!

I am just writing to let you know how utterly disgusted and sickened i am that your charity would associate themselves with one of the most famous child neglectors of all time, Ms Kate Mccann! I can honestly say that i will never donate a single penny to your charity whilst you associate yourselves with this disgraceful woman, and i shall be encouraging everyone else i know to avoid your charity too, whilst this woman is involved.
Do you really think a woman that neglected her kids to go out eating and drinking with her friends, is suitable for the role of ambassador for missing people? Madeleine Mccann would not be missing had it not been for the truly horrendous and selfish actions of her parents, who preferrred to dump their kids throughout their entire holiday, therefore losing one in the process, rather than behave like any other decent loving parents and put their childrens care before their own social life.
I do recommend that you read the case files (freely available online) and see for yourselves how Ms Mccann refused to answer questions to help the pj find her daughter, how blood and cadaver dogs alerted only to items/places/vehicles of the Mccanns, and maybe you should also read her book and see the names that she admits she called the investigators that were working day and night to try and find that poor abandoned child.
By employing this awful woman your charity is, in effect condoning parents abandoning their children in pursuit of their own interests, and i for one find that absolutely disgusting. If this is the message you wish to convey then i would expect your charity to become very busy in the near future supporting more parents that think its ok to leave their children alone in unlocked holiday apartments so that they can go on the piss and face no consequences should the worst happen again?!
Ms Mccann should be in prison for child neglect at the very least, not swanning round as an ambassador to missing people and getting her face all over the media.
I really do think you have not done your charity any favours by employing this disgusting excuse for a mother, and i do hope you will rethink your decision and find someone much more deserving of this position, preferably someone that didnt cause their own childs disappearance through their own disgusting lack of parenting.

Yours Sincerely,
a horrified parent

Well done Kathybelle.

I've just sent an e-mail to the same link. I've donated to them before, not again after this.

I did the same.

To whom it may concern

I was absolutely shocked to read this morning that Kate McCann is to become an ambassador for your organisation. My reason for this is that Mrs McCann freely admits that she and her husband left their three children, who were all under the age of 4, alone in an unlocked apartment, whilst they went out for dinner with their friends, only periodically checking on them during the evening. This is serious neglect and children that young should never be left alone, the dangers of doing so are immense, with an alleged abduction being the most remote of possibilities leading to harm to children!

Furthermore, Mrs McCann freely admitted at the time of Madeleine's disappearance, that neither she or her husband physically searched for their daughter, although there were many police officers, staff from the complex, locals of Praia da Luz and other holiday makers searching all over the town...Mrs McCann then lied in her account in her book," madeleine" that no one else was searching, only she and her husband! That is totally insulting to those who gave up lots of their time, taking time off work, spending the rest of their holiday etc in the search for the missing child! Kate McCann's interview with Jane Hill from the BBC will prove the veracity of this, that she admits she wasn't searching, the interview can be found on youtube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YWCVSjIJk8

Therefore, I hardly feel that this woman is fit to be an ambassador for anything, a woman who refused to answer police questions, hindering the search for her own daughter, and who was a prime suspect in the disappearance, and has not in any way been "cleared" only that the case has been shelved due to lack of new information, though this could be easily remedied if the friends of the McCanns agreed to go back to Portugal and do a reconstruction and if Kate herself agreed to answer the 48 questions she previously refused, the case could be reopened.

I know that I am not alone in my thoughts about the McCanns, and I expect there will be a large number of people who hold similar views to myself and as such I would implore you to rethink your strategy of using Kate McCann as an ambassador for your otherwise, most worthy charity, rather than risk the negative connotations that may arise from such an appointment.

Regards

The McCanns are the ones who made a conscious decision, to leave their children unsupervised in their unlocked, unlit apartment, 5 out of 6 nights of that so called family holiday. The McCanns even admitted that they left their children alone, after Madeleine told them, she and Sean had cried the previous evening and this wasn't the first time they had been told that their children were crying while they were out."

I would say she will be receiving a substantial salary...at least in the upper tens of thousands of pounds p.a.

...then gets a pat on the back and an mbe or whatever.

IMO, she looks unwell, sickly and dull.
For someone who is now representing a
charity for missing people, Kate really
oozes disinterest and a depressive image.
Something is not right here.Bit like awarding
Count Dracula a blood donor card.

A woman who by her own admission left 3 small children alone at night in an apartment in a foreign country, leading to the disappearance of one of them. The world must be laughing at this horrendous joke, surely it must be a joke !

As for "will she be getting a salary?", well somehow or other I can't see Kate Mccann doing anything for free, those coffers need to be filled up regularly in the easiest way possible. They've made millions out of the donations of wellwishers so far, so this is really no different, the charity relies on the donations of wellwishers, it's just another way of obtaining the money from the public at large. Someone will have to pay for the first class flights, the expensive hotels and the extensive wardrobe !

This appointment has to be the very best "bad joke" ever. So I guess that's it, an excellent job made of all the whitewash, home and dry, nobody will ever know what happened to Madeleine in our lifetime, OBE or whatever next...................you couldn't make it up, bad parenting well rewarded, a few other lives wrecked along the way, but hey who cares about anyone else? The Mccanns are probably planning a couple of royal weddings for their twins even now. Mrs Bucket springs to mind, keeping up appearances !

Hi Penny

Thanks a lot, we are all fired up on here after hearing this shocking news. I hope the people in charge of this charity read these emails, do the right thing and dismiss Kate McCann.
