Exclusive: Richard Branson to pay McCanns legal fees
Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson, perhaps best known for his failed balloon flying attempts, has agreed to pay for the McCanns legal fees in their attempt to clear their names in the disappearance of Madeleine.
It might be remembered that Gerry McCann announced 2 weeks prior to Madeleine having been missing for 50 days, that he intended to mark the 50th day by releasing 50 balloons. The question is, how did he know so far in advance that she would still be missing on the 50th day unless he had some involvement in Madeleine's disappearance? To date, Gerry McCann has not answered this question. Surely, he should?
As for Richard Branson, he obviously has more money than sense.
"Sir Richard Branson said: "Whether or not I have decided to put up funds to help the McCanns' legal case is not a subject I wish to discuss publicly.
"In the midst of all of this speculation and rumour, we must remember a little girl is still missing".
I take it that's a yes, then?
