From McCannfiles.com: June 2008

Gerry McCann candidate for election to board of BSCMR BSCMR

BSCMR Board Election 2008

There has been a BSCMR Board election taking place during the spring of 2008. The new Board will be in place from 1 June 2008-31 May 2010. The announcement of the new Board will take place at the BSCMR AGM on 3 June in Manchester.

The aims of the BSCMR are to:

promote clinical practice and research into cardiovascular magnetic resonance and to disseminate the useful results of such research
further the advancement of education in cardiovascular magnetic resonance for the public benefit.

The BSCMR is a Charity and is affiliated to the British Cardiovascular Society (BCS).

*

Dr Gerald McCann was amongst 9 candidates nominated for a position on the board and this was put to the membership of the BSCMR (The British Society of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance).

Positions up for Nomination were:

Chairman Elect.
Treasurer.
Deputy Treasurer
Other members (3 Positions)

The voting paper made the following statement:

Gerry McCann.

Gerry graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1992. His interest in non-invasive cardiology began during an intercalated BSC in physiology and sports science, followed by lecturing in cardiovascular and exercise medicine. Gerry completed an MD on cardiopulmonary exercise testing in aortic stenosis. After moving to Leicester in 2000, Gerry developed an interest in cardiac imaging and was awarded a European Society of Cardiology clinical training fellowship in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) undertaken in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. As well as receiving comprehensive clinical training, Gerry was involved in several research projects resulting in publication.

Gerry was appointed as a consultant cardiologist at Glenfield Hospital, Leicester, in 2005 and works closely with four radiologists on a dedicated CMR scanner offering a comprehensive clinical service. Our cardiac imaging fellow has recently secured a teriary consultant post in CMR. Gerry has been awarded a British Heart Foundation grant to assess the effects on left ventricular hypertophy in aortic stenosis on symptom development and funcional capacity, and other projects are under consideration.
unquote

He was appointed soon after this date - not bad considering he was still and arguido and now it seems he is a director of this charity which must have good and clear yearly accounts.
If he's a director this is also a Ltd. Co. Just as Missing People is.
In January 2008 Kate McC gave up practising as a GP to have more time to be an ambassador of sorts. So 2008 wasn't all bad then. There were some jobs lined up for them?

wasn't he voted off again later on (2012 or so?)

by **tigger** 27.05.15 12:50

I'll have a look. He certainly isn't on COMARE any longer, which is what you might be thinking of? It's a mystery why he was selected for that one. the BSCMR looks like it had just started up. Would be good to know what charitable enterprises they have? Surely not a free scan for those suffering from claustrophobia?

What I found interesting was that the BSCMR starts up in 2008 as far as I can see. Didn't exist before.

In February of 2008 we also have:

12/2
Sunday 17 February 2008

Meanwhile, it is understood Kate McCann is quitting her job as a locum GP to devote her life to children's charities. Mrs McCann has not returned to work since Madeleine's disappearance in May and has reportedly told friends she feels she has a lot to offer charity organisations.
The couple want to campaign for a Europe-wide alert system for missing children, like the amber alert system in place in the U.S. The McCanns attended a lunch for Missing Children Europe last week and they have both met with officials from the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children and the Centre for Child Exploitation and Online Protection.

KATE QUITS AS GP TO WORK FOR KIDS' CHARITIES EXCLUSIVE The People
Mum combines 'ambassador' role with search for missing Maddie

So that's fine then, both of them sorted? Except the ambassadorship took quite a long time in the end.

The British Society of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance

Incorporated 13 October 2004

Gerry was a director between 11 November 2008 and 15 December 2014

He was not a member of COMARE but he was a member of the Medical Practices sub committee that advised COMARE.

by **tigger** 28.05.15 11:54

Thanks, I hadn't checked it out properly - it looked to me to be part of the rehabilitation of the McCanns having started before their arguido status was lifted. Certainly efforts to make Kate ambassador started very early. and that took a very long time before it happened.

On 26/6/2008 Gerry McCann was elected to the board of BSCMR, without a specific function. The appointment ran from 1 -6-2008 to 31-5-2010.
I can't find anything on the website for the period of 2010 - 2012 so he would either still have been on the board or an honorary member.
But from 2012 he is an honorary member and he is nowhere to be seen as from 1/6/2014, neither as a member or on the board.
http://www.bscmr.org/current-bsh-board/#commentspost

Dr Gerry McCann, Glenfield Hospital, Leicester - Honorary Member 2012 to 2014.

Not mentioned anywhere - neither member or on the board for 2014 – 2016.
So he was no longer a director as from 1-6-2012.

Thanks Tigger. These appointments are nothing special though . Every specialist worth its salt has one or more of these "side jobs" and most try to avoid it where possible.

Yes, I know, but advising a quango which has close connections with Gordon Brown's brother and with the UK's government intention to build new nuclear power stations seems a little focussed.

the BSCMR is interesting because of the date he was proposed for the board and accepted. I'd think it's more or less a sinecure with moderate renumeration, e.g. when giving a lecture that sort of thing.
But it was sort of shouted from the rooftops at the beginning of June by the press. The chairman at the time was from Glasgow University. I think that was part of 'normalising' TM (together with an ambassadorship for Kate) for the public. If he's being taken on by British Society of whatever, he's got to be innocent?
Pretty good going considering they were still arguidos.

For Comare you'd need a 'tame' advisor imo.

I've just read it, thank you. Germany has closed it's nuclear power stations afaik after Fukushima.

Prof Busby (on youtube) has commented specifically on the effects of radiation on children's hearts. It's not good news, in relation to the Comare sub-group, it explains why they needed a cardiologist.

Going through some early interviews(looking for somethng else entirely) I came acros this very interesting bit:

An interview in three parts with Gonçalo Amaral IOL PortugalDiário (Links provided beside each part of interview)
03/04 August 2008
[..]

There was an intervention from the British government, even though it was somewhat clumsy. Mainly from the present Prime Minister, Gordon Brown. He spoke with Kate and with the English authorities that were involved in the investigation. And he also spoke with José Sócrates [Portuguese Prime Minister]. As far as I know, he never spoke directly with the PJ.

But where did the alleged power of the couple, which you have been suggesting, come from?

On the first night, a dossier about the family was requested, which the English authorities never sent. It was said that they were connected to commissions that emitted opinion reports on nuclear issues, but none of that was ever confirmed officially. Connections to political parties were also mentioned.
Did the British police send information about the McCanns and their friends?

No. They never sent the information that we requested. In fact, they did send only once, financial information. They stated that the couple had a mortgage and that there was no knowledge of any credit or debit cards. How didn’t they have any? The registration of the rental car mentions the card numbers. Concerning the other members of the group, the information was also only that.

IMO all becomes clear when one reads the report Nina posted : http://www.ianfairlie.org/news/childhood-leukemias-near-nuclear-power-stations-new-article/
Andrew Brown was on the Comare quango iirc. Interesting to see that the interference was "clumsy'' .

I have always been of the firm belief, that this is the reason for the unprecedented government involvement. I could actually find no evidence of a true expert in nuclear matters involved with Comare, not a single one. Why would a like for like study in germany into childhood leukemia's come up with completely different results? Just doesn't add up. All imo.

Hi Tinkler,
If you were at a point of buying/investing Billions of pounds in the provision of future Nuclear power supply to the masses in the UK, you would not supply information to the committee that would show that the product was in some way flawed, as this would lead to extremely massive compensation to the masses if it was proven at a later stage to have damaged a person's Health!!?
Was this information suppressed and by whom!!?

It's not just Britain - this sort of thing happens all over the world and the nuclear issue is just one of many which is manipulated.

I forgot to put a link in the quote re nuclear issues from Dr. Amaral: http://joana-morais.blogspot.com/2008/08/interview-with-gonalo-amaral-iol.html

I just did a bit of googling on the above and came across the fact that Gerry's name is not on the nuclear report but on one that deals with the possible dangers of CAT scans and such. The same committee had members of different areas of expertise.

Now this is amazingly interesting as it is not his area of expertise at all. MRI is supposed to be his area of expertise and it has no relevance whatsoever to radiation issues. (I've read the paper which resulted from the fellowship year in Amsterdam which he co-wrote and it is not exactly a beacon of intellect and ground-breaking research) .

Moreover, Dr. McCann's career wasn't exactly a glittering one so far. He'd lectured in sport medicine well before he ever took up cardiology. He studied in his home town so I presume he lived at home during that time.
iirc the book Kate tells us that Gerry had trouble finding work and had to travel quite far for it.
I'm amazed that he got a fellowship at all in 2004, although he didn't stay for the last month of it. So how did it come about that he was on the short-list to advise a quango on issues that were not his specialisation at all?

Gerry McCann was on the COMARE medical subcommittee which researched the safety of nuclear power and published those findings in it's 11th report in 2006

Subcommittee members 2006: From archive http://web.archive.org/web/20061006232338/http://www.comare.org.uk/comare_members.htm

@tigger…..knowing what we now know about Gerry, I would say he would be willing to say anything, for the right price. How he managed to get involved in the first place, who knows, easy money though! In Gerry's case I believe it's definitely what he know's that's keeping them all out of jail! I also believe that all the media involvement was, in part, used as a form of protection, Gerry had used up all his lives, he had definitely become a fly in the ointment. IMO

Just going back to the first posts on this topic and I haven't a clue what it all means. Surely he is not a Director of the BSCMR? I take it that the money is in the Ltd. Co. for the BSCMR has hardly any cash in their account iirc.
