Subject: RE: BS: Child neglect and the law
Heric, thanks for posting that - I hadn't seen it and it is worth reading.

I was a bit surprised today to see that £80,000 of the fund money is being used in another advertising campaign across Europe. It is to be used for newspaper, television and billboard adverts. There can't be many people who don't know that she is missing and the story is in most newspapers and on the television daily. That money could be used to help other children in need and IMO there is something obscene about this new proposed campaign and spending that amount of money to advertise for one missing child when the whole world already knows that child is missing. For goodness sake, there are starving and homeless children out there.

So we can expect more from the media and it is costing £80,000. When will it ever end?
