Alan Kisujja tells the story of how it all unfolded on radio - it was a very old fashioned coup.

The travel firm Thomas Cook has donated half of a 拢3m compensation payout it received after the deaths of two British children from carbon monoxide poisoning in Corfu to charity.聽 But is it too little too late in terms of fixing the company鈥檚 reputation? The company was cleared of any criminal responsibility at a trial in Greece in 2010 and last week an inquest jury ruled they had been unlawfully killed and said Thomas Cook "breached its duty of care". However the parents of Christi and Bobby Shepherd have called Thomas Cook 鈥渄isgraceful鈥� for not apologising directly to them and, in their words, 鈥減utting us last in the equation鈥�. So how badly has the firm handled this tragedy, and is it a lesson in how not to carry out crisis management? John McEwan worked at Thomas Cook for 30 years, eventually becoming the managing director of their international business and was also chair of the industry body ABTA from 2009 to 2013.
