The issue I have with the British tax payer payint includes that the crime didn't happen on British soil, terratory etc, they set up a fund to continue searching, Ben Needham didn't get any help in this manner or anyone else I can think of and the issue of this wouldn't have happened but for the fact the Mccanns left their children alone and now the tax payer is paying for their error.

I don't mind the tax I pay helping to find a missing child this is about madeleine not a bash at her parents.

But that's not Madeleine McCanns fault is it?

I would no more expect the fund to pay SY than I would expect April Jones fund to pay towards the £3million that searching for her cost the taxpayer.

To begrudge any of the money spent in trying to find missing children, whoever they are,  is mean-spirited in the extreme IMO.



The notion that innocence prevails over guilt – when there is no evidence to the contrary – is what separates civilization from barbarism.    Unfortunately, there are remains of barbarism among us.    Until very recently, it headed the PJ in Portimão. I hope he was the last one.

Perhaps since we are paying for the search for Madeleine through our taxes (which I fully support) it would be nice if the find Madeleine fund was donated to a missing children charity?

No it's not Madeleine's fault, it's the fault of the parents and if SY fund one case abroad then they need to fund all of them as apose to one case, not to mention what exactly did the money spent on individuals throw up? It looks like nothing of any value that I have heard, they've effectively spent the fund money on what? Then the charged for wrist bands, flyers etc. In the case of Shannon Matthew, the locals got them printed off for free, surely this is a better incentive than to charge or if they want to charge, spend it on something productive.

It's actually the fault of whoever took their child, as a matter of fact.

Children. Plural. Madeleine Mccann is being  looked for by Sy, paid from taxes. Madeleine is not the only lost child out there.

The McCanns have already raised over £50,000 for missing peoples charities.

I notice that once again the fact that a huge amount of the money in the fund is the McCanns own money - which they could have put into their own private bank accounts, but they didn't.      I have yet to find a 'sceptic' who will even acknowledge that quite significant fact - let alone comment on it.

People contributed to that fund in her name. Others were also looked for using UK tax funds. Other missing children should have similar funds.  The fact is, this one belongs to Madeline. Do you want it taken away from her then?
