Vote for Fraud Buster!
Please take a couple of minutes to show your support for Marta Andreasen – the former EU chief accountant turned EU fraud whistleblower, who spoke at the DM activists’ conference at Woburn Abbey back in April.
Accountancy Age is running an online poll for ‘Personality of the Year 2003’, and Marta is a candidate. Here’s what their website says about her:
“MARTA ANDREASEN - Outspoken, tough and immovable once she makes up her mind, Marta Andreasen has proved a real thorn in the side of the European Commission. Last May she was suspended from her post as chief accountant at the commission after publicly declaring that the commission’s accounts were faulty and that the £69bn annual budget was open to fraud and abuse. After a long battle, the European Parliament published a list of recommendations
that went some way to vindicating Andreasen’s claims.”
Neil Kinnock is hoping that Marta’s case against the Commission will go
away and be forgotten, so it’s vital to thwart him by taking every
opportunity to show that people are still interested and support her.

If you can, please leave it a while after receiving this e-mail before
voting, so that a sudden suspicious surge isn’t observed. It seems you can
vote without entering your e-mail address, but it’s not absolutely clear if
such votes are valid. If you do enter your address, they promise not to add
it to any mailing lists or sell it on – and you could win a prize! The awards ceremony is to be held on 12th November.
Please circulate this amongst your e-mail networks as widely as possible
and let’s do what we can to drive home this thorn in Kinnock’s side!
best regards,
Stuart
