team tractor Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 3 hours ago, marsh man said: Just read a bit in our paper where it stated the Charity Commission has published a highly critical report about the running of the Captain Tom Foundation , amongst other instances of misconduct by the veteran's daughter Hannah Ingram - Moore and her husband Colin , it stated that the proceeds of the book Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day would go to the foundation , whereas the proceeds of £1. 4 Million were paid into there own company Club Nook and up to now , no money have been paid into the charity , what a utter disgrace and they should hold there heads in shame MM I say hand them over to the people who donated . hopefully they’ll be in prison.

They didn't exactly look short of a few bob when they first came on the scene during the early days when Sir Tom first started his walk , a lot of people donated there hard earnt cash who were a lot worse off than his daughter , I wonder how much of her own money have she put in the fund , going by we have been told and the ( expenses ) she was charging I would have thought it was next to nothing , or even closer than that .

MM Yes they didn't appear to be too hard up. On the PLUS SIDE of the argument, absolutely all of the £39.4 million went to the charities it was supposed to. On the NEGATIVE SIDE, she and her husband must have thought they were due some of the good old boys charitable income and started taking from the pot.

Quite a big pot if the book alone amassed £1.4 Million . I doubt this will be the last we will hear about this sad affair , I wonder if she got any money from the television program they done that included ripping the building down that she didn't get , or got the wrong planning permission for MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The £18000 she got t for a short TV appearance? She really didn't think it through, did she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashman Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 I can’t get worked up about this. Most private charities are lifestyle gigs for wealthy wives with nothing to do and fancy mixing with other women doing much the same thing. The money was supposed to go to the NHS, so if the family hosed it up a wall instead of the countless NHS middle managers, then who cares?
