Judge rejects bid to ban Camila Batmanghelidjh and seven ex-trustees from being company directors.

Kids Company founder Camila Batmanghelidjh said she hoped the ruling would banish the myths about the charity

But the ruling cleared former chief executive Camila Batmanghelidjh and the others of personal wrongdoing. In the run-up to its collapse, the charity was spending around £20m a year, up to a quarter of which came from the government. The charity's chairman at the time of its collapse, who was also cleared by the ruling, was the former BBC executive Alan Yentob."There was no allegation of dishonesty, bad faith or personal gain," said the judge.

Mrs Justice Falk said the charity had grown rapidly from its south London base as demand for its specialist support services for vulnerable children grew. The judge described the people running the charity as a "group of highly impressive and dedicated individuals who selflessly gave enormous amounts of their time to what was clearly a highly challenging trusteeship".In a statement after the ruling, Ms Batmanghelidjh, who founded Kids Company in 1996, said: "I hope this judgement will be the first step in refuting the many lies that have been told and banishing the false myths.

That outfit screams cultural appropriation. Can we have some woke outrage please left.

Bark Bark......

The establishment closing ranks.

but where did all the money go ?

Disgraceful. They should be accountable for the loss of significant amounts of public money.

I often wonder if the high number of gang deaths could have been prevented if Kids Company had still been operating. They did fantastic work.

Anyone recruiting them to lead anything, needs to have a long, long lay down!!

Oh dear!

Of course she did

So where did the allegations of criminal behaviour come from? Allegations of sexual assault, that were broadcast on BBC Newsnight?

Another fine example of cronyism and those in power taking the rest of us for fools!

Batmanghelidjh might have been a law until herself but kids company did great work. She fought the system and the system won.
