Neglected your kids? Have some free money

My attitude towards the Madeline McCann story has evolved from mere irritation to absolute outrage.

Let's get some facts straight. Madeline was left alone, with her younger siblings, by her caring parents while they popped out for some tapas. The resort complex, being geared for families, offered a free babysitting service, which Mr & Mrs McCann were to sloppy or ignorant to call. While they are the victims of a terrible crime, their actions enabled the crime to take place. Yet they continue to be portrayed as only the victims.

Now this...

Madeleine fighting fund launched

A fighting fund has been launched to help cover escalating costs in the search for missing Madeleine McCann. The fund was launched at the Walkers Stadium in Leicester by Madeleine's uncle John McCann.

Can you believe their balls? They want our money so that they can stay and watch their mess be sorted out. While they have my sympathy, they will get none of my money. Or yours I hope. Every penny given says that it is OK to neglect your kids. Every person who gives is sheepishly following the herd and condoning the frankly deplorable actions of Mr & Mrs McCann. Think for yourselves, please.

If you want to do something constructive for a missing person, sign the petition demanding the release of BBC journalist Alan Johnston, now missing in Gaza for over two months.
