On why they’ve had such support from the british establishment.
________
I’ve known those facts above for several months. Can’t for the life of me understand where everyone can say it is affecting this case re coverage by press or Government involvement behinds the scenes.
Salomon, this next sentence is not directed at you.
Some of the so called theories or motives are just incredible to me. That there are people who have a type of mind that focuses on the most sinister motive or reasoning behind everything. And worst part is most relish in that the nastier it gets they thrive on it and get their jollies and the beat goes on.

‘It was at that point, Trish says, that her sister-in-law became incandescent with rage, screaming, “Do you honestly believe that I would murder my own child?”
Thus helpfully establishing that Kate is prone to outbursts of incandescent rage…

I don’t believe ….”thus helpfully….” talking about twisting things around to suit one’s own purpose!
You would have sat their very calm and cool and said “why no, I didn’t murder my child, but thank you for asking anyhow.”
She screamed in rage? They would have been pulling me off the ********* who accused me off that.

Wigit - I agree. With so much talk of peadophila, the forum has yet to come up with a solution or much meaningful debate. I advocate an amnesty.
Allow anyone with illegal material to tell the police how they got it with - if they have not made the pics/video - no fear of arrest…
Then we will find out who distrubutes child porn and makes it…

Having read the ‘anorak’ posters comments over the last few months I think it is a sad reflection on today’s society that almost every report is met with negative remarks - sometimes even threatening remarks.
I cannot make my mind up why this type of person is drawn to a forum like anorak - I guess the answer is they probably feel driven enough to voice their opinions which seem to me to be invariably negative.
I ‘enjoy’ very much the sleuthing aspect of the forum - but I do get sick of the insults & negative comments.

Buenos dias Chloe -
my comment at 84 was my response. x

…totally revolting.
Not exactly the words to come from the mouth of a loving caring mother - didn’t G say he hoped poor M was being treated like a Princess. Now they want her to have blankets and food.
I say ‘poor’ because the poor girlie’s little heart must have almost burst with fear and fright in the minutes before she was “”"”abducted”"”"…..
Words fail me so they do

Absolutely. Totally.
I have never, ever ever, in my life, seen parents - as cold and hardened and unemotional as this couple!heartbreaking pain was shown in the parents of little Rhys Jones amongst others, it was very sad watching them so it was.
How in the name of god can they find it in their hearts (if they have any), to make a film, do magazines, ask for money, sell tat online, talk crap etc. If it was my missing child, or anyone’s child on here, we would be clawing every inch of earth in Praia and beyond, desperate.
It leaves a decent person speechless doesn’t it - SHAME on the fecking pair of them.
( i’m on my 3rd spanish brekky, my friggin nerves are shot - fancy one..)

On why they’ve had such support from the british establishment.
I’m not one to favour conspiracy theories (they are often an easy excuse for something a lot more complicated). But you should think about the following “coincidences”:
- - - A Mr Andrew Brown (allegedly Gordon Brown’s brother)works for EDF energy which operates nuclear power stations. In November 2005, EFD’s Chief Executive, Vincent de Rivaz, told a parliamentary committee that new nuclear power stations could be built within ten years if planning and licensing laws are relaxed.
- Gerry McCann is a medical advisor to COMARE, a governemnt committee which monitors radiation in the enviroment. You can
- Today Gordon Brown is expected to announce formal go-ahead for new Nuclear Power Stations in the UK.
- This morning in a French radio station EDF was mentioned as a favourite to be granted the contract to build and run some of these power stations in the UK.
Lies, coincidences, inaccuracies? Maybe. But these are facts that when brougth into the same context should make us think…

Wotcha folks, there’s another thread just been started for today, refresh Anorak for todays front page, see you on the other side?

Putting out old interviews like Vanity Fair/Film is a high risk strategy – as headlines and editorial presentation are now subtly shifting. It’s getting very hard for CM to maintain control.

Also, the use of the word “murder” is interesting, since I have always understood that the PJ tended to think more in terms of an accident, i.e. manslaughter, rather than murder.

To play devil’s advocate for a moment, she might just have gone stark staring mad. If not, it’s the most revolting cynical comment (not sure that the English word is cynical - I might be going Spanglish) I’ve heard for a long time.
January 10th, 2008 at 8:58 am
‘And with this last devastating conclusion—namely that Madeleine will likely never reappear—Madeleine’s own father haltingly agrees.’
Really?
Having trouble reconciling that with what Team McCann are claiming when they are trying to raise money…

And what is again noticeable is the lack of genuine feeling.
Q.Why is she not making an empassioned plea to get her daughter back.
A. Because she knows that M is long gone (imo).
January 10th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Good morning.
————————————————-
And Kate says she told friends: “I hope whoever has Madeleine is giving her blankets, is feeding her properly, is keeping her warm.”

Jesus, Mary and feckin Joseph….
I can’t believe this woman said this.
I’m giving the Spanish breakfast welly this morning.
Unbelievable words from the pair of them.
As someone posted earlier: Was she talking about a dog?

Thanks for posting that from the Mirror Forum.
Says it all.
But it is only when you read it through that you realise exactly how disgusting the whole shoddy thing has been - from start to now. And all carefully orchestrated by Madeleine’s own parents.
Anyone in any doubt about how they have mercilessly exploited their daughter need only read that post.
Shame on them.

I do so agree about the way times have changed
I often think back to those halcyon days of our youth, when to be gay meant to be happy, a Virgin was not an airline, and only Generals had Aides.
In those days you married first and then lived together,
fast food was what you ate during Lent,
sheltered accommodation was where you waited for a bus.
a chip was a small piece of potato, not silicone,
making out referred to how you did in your exams,
a stud was what attached your collar to your shirt,
and going all the way with your girl friend meant staying on the trolley bus all the way to the depot.
Cigarette smoking was fashionable, grass was mown, coke was kept in the shed, a joint was the Sunday roast, and pot was what you cooked it in.
Ecstasy was a religious experience, and smack was what your father gave you if you smoked a cigarette.
When I was young it was the ‘Duke’ of York who had 10 thousand men.

As you and I discussed, and I thought agreed, late last night, by your own standards of “evidence” you equally have no “evidence” to support your opinions.

In another room while news was on…the matter of fact way a man was speaking about the film…Maddie was mentioned at the end. He didn’t seem to think there could be grief at losing a child…that was loved so much!

Tony Bennett has put it so well.
One of the suspicious things about the McCanns and also Jane Tanner is the flat, “dead” voices they use in interviews. There is nothing natural or spontaneous about the way they speak.
The only time KM sounded faintly natural was that weird interlude on Panorama when, frankly, she seemed a bit drunk.
________________
Another side to that could be - would any of us be ‘alive’ inside if our child was missing? If my child was missing not only would I be ‘dead’ inside but I’d be on tranqs 24/7 to keep me functioning and, if lucky, half-way sane, which in turn would affect my ability to show emotion or have emotion in my voice.

No-one would have dreamed of thinking they were involved in Madeleine’s disappearance…until they were caught out in all the inconsistencies about doors locked/unlocked, windows jemmied/not jemmied, soft toy on non-existent high shelf..and that was just the beginning.
The biggest mystery is why the British press is pussy-footing around the subject. Worse…deliberately holding back on any criticism of McCanns, even while the inernet forums seethe with it.
When, for instance, nanny Louise Woodward was accused of shaking the little boy she looked after in the US, the press didn’t feel any need to protect her because she was British. So what is going on here?
______________
Honestly, I think the newspapers are scared *hitless with those very strict libel laws the UK has. And any lawyer worth their money that most of them I’m certain have retainers with, if not on staff, would have cautioned them to watch their p’s and q’s in what they print. If the newspapers printed what the majority of people on forums are saying, as their views, and this whole case does not come out the way the many bloggers are saying , I don’t think Madeleine’s Fund would ever need to worry about raising money again!

Another excerpt from the Vanity Fair article, from the Sun:
QUOTE
Jon Corner said: “In August Kate told me, ‘I wish I could go back to the day before Madeleine was abducted. I would get a really good look around and think: Who is secretly watching my family? Because someone was watching my family very, very carefully. And taking notes’.”
UNQUOTE

If your child had been abducted during your absence, wouldn’t your wish to go back in time be used to correct the error of leaving her and her siblings alone and preventing the abduction? So focused are they are on their defense, the McCanns and their close supporters don’t realize how badly their comments come across
__________
Another side to that could be - they know the public condemnation they are receiving, one can’t miss that now can they, being suspects, papers writing every little tidbit they are told or think up as gospel, so they are on the defensive - who wouldn’t be?
January 10th, 2008 at 4:24 am
OMG! — I just listened to Jon Gaunt’s interview with Clarence Mitchell on TalkSport–Jon did an excellent job of journalism, pressing hard for real answers to tough questions.
Have a listen, please:

I’ve looked through Vanity Fair’s website at the Table of Contents for both February and January and see no mention of the McCanns. I would think if it were in one of those issues, it would be listed, wouldn’t you?
I am amazed at Gerry’s statement that he still thinks leaving his very young children alone while they dined away was not irresponsible and has the gall to say so for a print interview.
And Kate’s wish for Madeleine makes me think Kate believes Madeleine is a puppy instead of a little girl:
QUOTE
And Kate says she told friends: “I hope whoever has Madeleine is giving her blankets, is feeding her properly, is keeping her warm.”
UNQUOTE
These two people disgust me. I wish they had the decency to come forward, even at this late date, and fully disclose what they know of what happened to Madeleine.
