Missing jet-skier's wife appeals to PM after 'no help' from Govt

Nov 18 2008 by Neil Atkinson, Huddersfield Daily Examiner

THE wife of a champion jet skier who disappeared off Bali more than three weeks ago has made a direct appeal to Gordon Brown for help.

Jeremy Hoyland, 41, has not been seen since he made a mobile phone call on October 24 saying he was in trouble in the water two miles off the Indonesian island.

His wife Jacqui, 44, from Penistone, has condemned the assistance offered to her family by the British Government and she released the text of a letter she wrote to the Prime Minister a week ago begging him for help.

Mrs Hoyland said she had received no reply from Mr Brown and had had hardly any contact with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) since her husband went missing.
