Madeleine McCann: Ben Needham Is Missing, Operation Predator And Maddie’s Cops
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann.
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “McCanns warn: We’ll sue over claims we drugged our children”
Page 7: “Madeleine parents: We have never sedated our children” – The “slurs” are “outrageous” and “hurtful”.
The theory that they sedated all of their children is a “wild theory”. It appears in Portuguese newspaper 24 Horas, a source for “some of the more outlandish reporting”. The Express reproduces the outlandish reporting for its readers to digest and marvel at
“Grim hunt for images as child-porn ring is smashed” – Operation Predator is a clamp down on child porn in Portugal. A friend of the McCanns says: “This shows the scale of the problem in Portugal and appears to show that the Portuguese police seem to be looking in the right direction. It may provide vital leads”
But the raids were not directly connected with the Madeleine case. Operation Predator was six months in the planning
THE SUN front page: “Maddie: cop raid on pervs”
Page 7: “McCANNS’ DELIGHT AT PAEDO SWOOP” – Kate and Gerry McCann are “encouraged” that 300 Portuguese police “smashed” a 80-strong paedophile ring
“’FIND OUR KIDS TV’” – Kate and Gerry have backed a TV channel that features the 150,000 UK children that go missing each year. Pictures of missing children will be shown at GP surgeries, shopping malls and hospitals
Page 37: “MISSING BEN AGONY – We were too working class to get help like Maddie’s family” – The mother of Ben Needham, who disappeared 16 years ago on the Greek island of Kos – sees haves and have nots
“I was 19,” says Kerry Grist. “Just an ordinary girl from a council estate and people thought, ‘She will just go away in a few months, have another child and forget about it…I don’t think people thought Ben was important enough.” Or the media didn’t…
Kate McCann is a doctor. Gerry McCann is a heart specialist. Both Madeleine and Ben are blonde
DAILY MAIL page 5: “Huge porn swoop offers hope of a Maddie clue”
“Could Ben still be alive?” – Ben Needham disappeared from near his grandparents’ farm house
Says Mrs Grist, Ben’s mum: “Madeleine’s parents are middle class people with important jobs and seemed to have had a publicity machine behind them straight away”
DAILY MIRROR page 15: “WHY STAY IF SHE HAD SOMETHING TO HIDE?”
A pal of Kate McCann says: “She could not tear herself away [from Portugal]. What mother could leave the place where her daughter vanished? …If she had something to hide why would she hang around in Praia da Luz waiting for the police to come knocking on the door?”
We don’t know. Why?
DAILY STAR front page: “MADDIE POLICE ARREST 80 PAEDOS”
Madeleine McCann does not have her own police force – not yet. But the police working on one case are Portuguese, like the police in her case. It’s an “EXCLUSIVE”
Page 7: “MADDIE COPS RAID PAEDOS” – The Star sees Gerry McCann leaving his home in a car. “STRAIN” reads the caption
DAILY TELEGRAPH page 17: “Madeleine police turn spotlight back on paedophiles”
“Missing children TV hopes to jog patients’ memories” – Ben Needham is missing. Xiao Xiao is missing. Lee Thomas Wedge is missing. Leanna Petrenko is missing. Abigaile Sommerville is missing. Andrew Paul Gosden is missing
THE INDEPENDENT page 24: “Mother in plea to missing son” – Ben Needham is missing
THE TIMES page 11: “Madeleine police return to kidnap theory”
German and Dutch police are believed to have been asked to trace and interview guests staying at the Ocean Club when Madeleine went missing
THE GUARDIAN: No Madeleine news today

LOL, US/Noraid sponsored IRA ok, 11/9 not ok, ok then.
Who is this IDIOT?
Typical sceptic, supports and pays for terrorism elsewhere for decades, then expects eveyone to give a fuck in a spectacular in which less people died than we lost to the V2 Bombing campaign. What an insult.
Lets not forget that the Germans declared war on Germ any also in 1941…
Sue me “Chantilly” you moron, please please sue me over the above, I could do with some money after you lose, you speng. You’re doing more damage to your nation than the Bushes ever did, then again winding you up is so easy that we can obviously have you on here owning you ad nauseam forever.
Silly Rabbit, tricks are for kids.

Morning SSS
How’s Manchester today?

1618 trust me…
Good point there doc. ProMcConns do get personal very quickly - short tempers and all that and short on reasoned arguments…
It’s also what team McConn do as well. Rubbish anything or anyone that shows them up in a bad light. Of course it’s a “hurtful” “slur” when they are on the receiving end.

1617 Carmen
You mean CROISSANT surely?
Morning all
October 12th, 2007 at 8:51 am
1617 - Carmen, if these “diversions” (IRA, was Hitler really a nice bloke, Iraq, calling people all the names under the sun) were part of a pro-McCann ploy to disrupt the relevant discussion, they couldn’t actually do a better job.
October 12th, 2007 at 8:43 am
please, don’t feed the trolls.
October 12th, 2007 at 8:40 am

POOR Frumpy old Ade. I feel sad for your type. You should hook up with Susannah - she’s an angry bitch. A militant feminist comes to mind. Maybe you two can have a pow -wow. You deserve one another.
October 12th, 2007 at 8:12 am
Ohhh…..time for a quick nap, then a bath, shower and then I’m off to the Windy City Airport.. Flying out to Vegas for the weekend for an event.
Don’t miss me too much…..I just ADORE you all on here.
So full of hot air…………so dull………….so British…YAWN.
BORE-ING!!
October 12th, 2007 at 8:12 am
I wonder if Kate and Gerry went to Amsterdam before Kate was pregnant
and that was where they had an egg, sperm, or surrogate donor.
Also it might explain no baby pictures etc…….

Will - My lawyer husband has advised me not to respond to your ugliness here anymore.
Not only because you’re being investigated for Libel - but because you’re a liar too. A liar who can’t be man enough to apologize for distorting and manipulating my words.
You got caught didn’t you, liar? LOL!!
Running a bit scared I believe………
You should be!! Your phone will be ringing along with your ears very soon.
October 12th, 2007 at 8:05 am

Glad you like us ADE….recall that your soldiers were right there all along - so what’s your point Arse???
What’s Iraq got to do with the MCCANNS - A dumb excuse??

‘While you’re at it - you need to look at a plan to restore the rotting and decaying teeth of your fellow country men. As Posh says “Everyone in America smiles so much - because they have such great teeth - unlike England where people can’t open their mouths for fear of revealing a set of rotting chompers”…..LOL, oh that Spice girl. So clever. So true.’
s0 deluded, so shallow, so you

Will is not a public figure. Posts on forums are just that - posts. No one knows who Will is. Will will never be sued. Please give up this line of thinking and also those who think what they post here could get them in trouble. Get real.

Shantilly Lace - Does the name George Wanker Bush mean anything to you.
I think it would be prudent for you to shut up.
Iraq wants your dirty backsides out of their country.
Or do you still believe they were behind 9/11, Had weapons of mass destruction or that the great U.S is installing democracy.
I don’t know how to tell you this Lacey, but America is no longer an Empire, and it is dying as fast as the Great Rome did.
I loathe the current American Administration, plus the two priors.
LOL!!!! The dumb witted school teacher……LOL! God HELP your next generation - no wonder the drinking problems’ getting so much worse over there in England with your school children being taught by facists like this dumb bitch - your children don’t have a shot in the dark.
America is no longer an Empire? LOL…..Oh, then who is England??
LOLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t get over losing the Revolutionary War, still? Tsk, Tsk, Tsk.
Pathetic old Susannah - off to pick up her meager work wages.
LOL!! People actually pay to hear her “teach” never mind allow her to talk publicly??? BAD NEWS for the little English children. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting to see the “slur” story that gerrykins is not maddy’s dad. Now that could open a whole new can of worms about motives, relationships and inter-tapas tensions. Not to mention bad tempers flaring up an’ all…
Monday’s forensic news may also tell us about gerrykins’ dad status…
Could see some fun coming up next week…

There are some Americans seriously aware of the dangers facing your nation but you are still in la la land.
Go to bed or go and eat some fudge.
Even go and watch Casablanca just leave us disgusting people alone.
Answer that and keep us laughing for the entire week.
Susannah - You are an asshole. It’s true what they say about you on this forum. I cannot believe you are allowed to teach in this world. Your prejudice and stupidity is extraordinary. You should be banned from walking anywhere within a 10 mile radius of children. You are a frightening bitch. Henny Penny, doom and gloom, the sky is falling on America?? LOL! England is still a sore loser, huh Suze Q? LOL!!!
What the fuck do you know about America you anti-American SLOB. Your country has no original ideas - you steal from us on every level.
And you’re all bloody bores, and live in a dirty run down country with old school mentalities. Your men are a pathetic lot. Dissheveled and frumpy -with bad teeth and bad hair. I once waited for 10 hours in the emergency room. Yeah, socialized medicine is real good!! LOL - NOT.
While you’re at it - you need to look at a plan to restore the rotting and decaying teeth of your fellow country men. As Posh says “Everyone in America smiles so much - because they have such great teeth - unlike England where people can’t open their mouths for fear of revealing a set of rotting chompers”…..LOL, oh that Spice girl.
