McCanns Public relations representative steps down

[hedge]

Justine Mcguinness the PR for the mccanns is reported by the guardian as stepping down from her role.

It is felt by parties connected to the family that a more experienced PR manager is needed now the case has taken the recent turns it has.

It has been quoted that the leading replacement is thought to be the former editor of the News of the World and Hello Magazine, a Mr Phil Hall.

IMO, this step if true will not remove the growing public suspicion people have over the manner they have conducted themselves thus far.. or are they wise to recruit a publically and media savvy manager?

What are your thoughts.

I have never been able to understand why 'Team McCann' have had a PR manager.

How many other parents of missing children have had one? I would like to know.

Recruiting finance people and a PR manager hasn't done them any favours whatsoever ~ quite obviously a waste of money!

Totally agree Pippa.

Apparently tho, they have hired someone more experienced & more high -profile by all accounts.

Pity they didn't take their nanny on holiday with them.

[Pippa68]

I used to be a childrens nanny, Rev. I went on plenty of working holidays with my families in order for me to take care of the kids every other evening and every other day time.

Pippa why have kids though if you cant give them your time?

I havent got kids but if I had I would want to see them grow up and have the memories not see them for a quick 20 mins a day

[Pippa68]

Luckily for me I can work from home, Rev ~ although I have used childminders in the past when I worked out of the home on a part time basis.

I can understand the need and the desire to work, therefore a childminder or nanny is required. I would never slate anyone for using these services. I don't see why I couldn't juggle the two together!

However in this case it seems crazy that the nanny wasn't taken with them. If she/he wasn't available there are agencies to use ~ although of course the McCann's did make use of the kids club available in Portugal.

I do see your point though, Rev. I have seen couples and indeed worked for one who only saw their kids for ten minutes a day. Something really has to give in cases like that. Oh well...that's another thread, eh?
