.. and of course no mccann supporter on here has an axe to grind either on behalf of the mccanns.
As to Ms. O'Dowd, exemplary in her work and no one has contermanded her analysis of the accounts.
and we have yet to here from any mccann source an independently audited figure of the money spent on 'searching'.
Stephen - you made the statement, so it is up to you to provide evidence. You portrayed Enid O'dowd as someone with no axe to grind - really?.
Having read her "analysis", my opinion differs from yours - in my view the "analysis" reeks of bias, and she is of course a mate of Bennetts and called by him as a witness in his court case so hardly unbiased.
1/10 for effort.
As has been pointed out - even the "no axe to grind" FCA that you have cited says " It has been stated in the media, probably inaccurately, that only 13% of expenditure for this period related to searching for Madeleine. However, it is not clear what this percentage actually is because some of the cost headings require clarification, in particular legal and professional fees"
So - where did the 13% claim come from? Or do you wish to withdraw it?
