Does the Madeleine Fund have a moral obligation to transparency?

[mercury]

Am I not allowed to volunteer a reason why the McCann Fund may prefer it if their Fund Manager's name was not publicised?  If you don't like my posts ignore them or report them to the Mods, just quit whingeing about them, it's boring.

youre twisting ducking and diving Alfie, and no, thats not allowed IMO
As to your posts, I will respond as and when and however I see fit, same as you do to others'

I'm putting you back on ignore now, your posts are largely worthless IMO.  Goodbye.

He's brave (or foolish) enough to put his name to what he does, I'm not. I didn't know Murat had a son? I don't think any character assassination by anyone on the internet is effective myself. As some are always saying, nobody cares what people are saying on internet forums. I haven't seen him doing that, but I haven't seen everything he's done I guess. I have to say I've seen some eccentricity on here in my short time as a member.

Character assassination on the internet may not always have the desired effect of ruining someone's reputation in RL but I'm sure if it were you you'd rather not take any chances.  In fact I'm fairly certain you wouldn't,  because you currently post using an anonymous ID.

From "The Book".
'from the outset everyone agreed that despite the costs involved, it (the Fund) must be run to the highest standards of transparency whatever it cost'.

Was this delivered?

As far as I can see they certainly delivered transparency in the first year, then subsequently not so much.  Perhaps the costs of such transparency proved prohibitive when the donations started to dry up?  Perhaps a promise made with good intentions at the outset was impossible to fulfill going forward...?  Or maybe they're just lying b........s who like to break their promises to give people like you (who doesn't give a shit anyway) something to write about on internet forums?

At least, bo , I am honest about why I am here.
Why are you here? Because you really believe that your posts on here will make a difference to something or other ? Pull the other bell it has legs on it (I know  ).

I have never claimed that my posts make a difference to anyone or anything, but I have followed this case from Day 1, I have been deeply moved and troubled by it, and therefore I DO give a shit about it.   Why you who claims NOT to give a shit about it, but who expends a fair amount of time and energy "only asking questions" about it, is for you to know and for me not to give a shit about.

My thoughts precisely especially when it was raised on a false premise.

But how wonderful that they have made the money and given it to search for Madeleine

Would you like to clarify what the false premise is, Angelo?

That sounds quite a serious accusation to me.



If you are unable to clarify it, may I suggest you remove it

There is no searching going on.  The McCanns take every opportunity to ask the public to search but don't do it themselves.

As far as suing for libel and telling lies is concerned it has not been established who told lies and who told the truth. The jury is still out on that one.

SY are searching, but we are not privy to their methods.

Kate and Gerry would not wish to jeopardize their search.  They spent years searching as you well know; even if you wont admit it.

Not everyone believes that the best way to search is roam the country asking questions, looking around corners and with a spade in their hand.... as YOU have pushed as the method that YOU would use 

The Drs Mccann used the more intelligent approach of getting people they believed experts to do it for them.  They raised money and they organised, rather than wander around aimlessly.


Their greatest coup was getting SY involved

So there was not enough money/time/inclination ( delete where appropriate ) to fulfill their promise of full transparency yet there was to fund a rather lengthy damages case against Amaral. I see.
