Car accident

[edit]

It is written there, in the main article, that Mr. McTaggart was killed in a car accident. Is it truth or not? Krasss (talk) 01:42, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Success?

[edit]

Can it be said that "his protest succeeded in 1974 when the French announced the end of their atmospheric nuclear testing program"? The programme was stopped for lots of reasons, can McTaggart himself be given sole credit for this?203.184.41.226 (talk) 06:23, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

McTaggart was hired by Greenpece's member E. Bennett Metcalfe, and provided his ketch for a pay of $9,000 US dollars. When Metcalfe arrived to Auckland had to free McTaggart from jail where he had been arrested and charged with smuggling Swiss watches and other stuff into New Zealand with his boat. When the French put a mine on the Rainbow Warrior side and sunk it in Auckland harbour, Greenpeace became famous in the world and when the French government paid a US$20 million for damages, McTaggart "saw the green light" and the endless possibilities he could have if could get to the top of the NGO. Eventually, he became a millonaire skimming quite a lot of money from donations to Greenpeace campaigns. McTaggart was killed driving his luxurious Ferrari in 2001, after being forced to resign from Greenpeace. Finnish lawyer Matti Wuori was named Greenpeace International President replacing Mc Taggart because all his obscure manipulations came to light after Frans Kotte, Greenpeace's accountant in chief, provided the details of Swiss accounts with the name of McTaggart and other officials.
