    Just want to focus on 1 part of that article.

    "A statement from the Ingram-Moore family said the company controlled by Ms Ingram-Moore and Mr Ingram-Moore "made its application for various trademarks in April 2020 prior to the formation of The Captain Tom Foundation", which was in May 2020.

    "Neither Hannah nor Colin Ingram-Moore were trustee directors of The Captain Tom Foundation upon its formation," the statement added."

    Let's look at what this really means.

    Immediately prior to setting up the Charitable Foundation, the family hived off a major asset. For themselves.

    And used other people to be trustee directors due to their conflict of interest in relation both to having taken assets, and charging large amounts for their services.

    They want both the considerable tax benefits of Charitable status, and to run it as a for-profit business for themselves.

    They can do either 1 of those things. But not both.

    Compare/contrast with the incredibly selfless act of Captain Tom himself.

    Further to my last comment, just to show how words do not necessarily mean what people might think:-

    When the foundation was founded, just the 1 Director. That was the Ingram-Moore's Accountant. Who resigned just after Hannah was appointed (4 Feb 2021). (Please note-that is all perfectly normal. Accountant sets up firm for client in his name, then hands it over as part of the service)

    On 1 Feb 2021 Hannah became a Director. Her Correspondence address remained at her Accountants. Resigned 6 weeks later, presumably due to the massive public outcry. An Accountant by the name of David Colin Ingram-Moore has been a Director since 1st Feb 2021.

    All a matter of public record. Anyone can search for this stuff at Companies House online.

    The Yellow coloured chain around her neck.... may not be gold or bought with Tom's charity money. Her dress could be from M&S let the people that donate decide whether to give their money to her charity ....good or badly run.

    Do they really think this sort of thing does their objective any good whatsoever? If they brought back stocks in the town square I'm pretty sure she'd be covered in more than just rotten veg.
  • goldongoldon Member Posts: 8,986
    Will she get sacked .... definitely no medal.... prosecute her for vandalism.
  • EssexphilEssexphil Member Posts: 8,662
    People like this do it for the publicity.

    I would much prefer it if people like this are prosecuted without the Press giving them the oxygen of publicity they crave.

    Regardless of any merit their may be in their cause, this sort of stuff sickens me.

    You would have to be an absolute moron to think this was a good idea.
  • goldongoldon Member Posts: 8,986
    Unlike the other Statue's being targeted this man " did no wrong " his medals tell the story. My only medal was for running a Marathon.....how many medals have Climate Activists got.

    At least she won't be able to use the human rights defence and I hope she gets what is deserved. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-63059300

    I would imagine she has no idea of what Captain Sir Tom Moore and his generation went through to enable her to act in this way. She certainly has no respect.
