Madeleine McCann: Carlos Anjos Says, Clarence Mitchell Replies And The Daily Express Is Quiet
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN: “Maddie cops snub”
Carlos Anjos, head of the Portuguese Police Federation, says: “There are bigger problems in the police”, than the case of Madeleine McCann
Says Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman: “Mr Anjos is entitled to his opinion but it is entirely unhelpful”
This the same Carlos Anjos who once noted:
“There is no criminal investigation which can feed a news frenzy for six months, so what we have seen are both English and Portuguese journalists behaving in a scandalous and unprofessional way. Writing terrible stories in the papers, some of which have clearly affected the McCanns… now we have to say that the McCanns are partly to blame for this. Because it was something they created”
And then one of the oddest lines yet seen in a newspaper:
“Meanwhile cops have ruled out a theory the four-year-old could have been snatched by Swiss pervert Urs Hans Von Aesch. He blew his chance in august after killing a girl of five”
Anyone care to explain that comment?
DAILY STAR: “FIND MADDIE? WE’VE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO. HEAD COP BLASTS McCANN SEARCH”
Says Mr Anjos: “There are bigger problems than the Maddie case”
Why the Star should appear shocked at this seem unclear, given the tabloid stories of paedophilia being rife in Portugal
Says Mr Anjos: “I am certain that all of my colleagues involved in the investigation are doing everything they can to discover what happened”
DAILY MIRROR: “Maddy’s ‘not our priority’”
Mr Anjos made his views known in Portuguese newspaper 24 Horas
MARI Luz Cortes – Still missing. Her father has posted a £110,000 reward, The paper reports that police are “scaling down the search”
DAILY MAIL: “Maddie? We’ve got bigger problems”
Says Mr Anjos: “But with respect, there are bigger problems in the Policia Judiciaria than the Madeleine case”
DAILY EXPRESS: NO MADELEINE NEWS – Which is the biggest Madeleine McCann news of the past six months
Madeleine McCann: hype, frenzy and speculation

You get insulted??
What about us posters on here last night discussing an issue another poster had asked advice on and you arrive and declare that this forum had become ‘ a meeting place for losers ‘ I think most posters would have been insulted by your uncalled for remarks.

No Chateleine, its Afrikaans … but very similar to Dutch.

I’m familiar with Afrikaans. This is genuine Dutch

I only speak Afrikaans at home, and what I wrote is in Afrikaans. Maybe I can then speak three languages (or possibly four because Belgian (spoken anyway) is closer to Afrikaans than Dutch - ask Dana Winner

I think the McCons/Tapas will have to stick well and close together despite their true feelings for each other because they are up against the public on one side, and on the other is someone to whom they may have called in favors
This calling in favors power the McCons have will work against them in the long run. That’s a dangerous power to have. Cuts both ways.

The McCann are at the top of the company (Madeleine lt) of .
They may have spent more then half a million on THEMSELVES so far.
Branson may pay their legal bills.
Kennedymay pay for Retardo3 and The Pink Shirted One.

“[...] A Perfect crime ? No. He did it 8 times, made a lot of money, and then talked about it in the pub. Well who couldn’t ?
[...] How long can the Tapas 7/9/10/11 keep quiet ? This will eat them. They will feel permanently nauseous. Permanently on edge. They may develop psychosomatic illnesses. They can never relax even with their own partners. Expect relationships to fall apart. And once that happens the leaks will begin in the McDamm, and even Clarrie will not have sufficient fingers to stop them all.
Theoretically of course.

Super.

To tell you the truth there is a majority of anti…. ejem…In my “anti-eyes”,you are not being intrusive nor anything of the sort and you want to be informed which is very correct.
Here,the majority wants the truth for Madeleine and justice given to this poor child.
It should be what unites the pros and antis but this is not happening.
The pro come up with an awful lot of bollocks which the anti cant accept!
Thats all!
Anyhow,must go now…..see u later hopefully.

the watcher - are you two different posters? or a split personality or are we just seeing your other face this evening…?
you are right most of it speculation and press reports (and some video footage) - what else do we have to go on??
no i’m not 2 different posters or a split personality but i do have an open mind .
what we have here on anorak are 2 groups pro and anti mccann. at war.
i belong to niether group - i read and listen to all of you and try to make sence of it all.
sometimes i get insulted for sounding pro and sometimes for sounding anti .
i don’t pretend to know the answers unlike some on anorak.
i just take part in the debate .
sorry but i don’t want to be in anybodys gang.

“But in trying to make a valid point she went totally over the top and if the illustrations used were real then i feel dreadfully sorry for her son.
She is right children do need to experience childhood, but more importantly they need to know that they are safe and protected from danger by their parents. ”
*****************
Yes.This is correct nosey:she probably went OTT but she seems “genuine” about her soon and this is very worrying.This is why Julie and I reacted like that….
And,absolutely right: children need to investigate the world and make their experience as long as they are always checked upon,safe and guided but she does not seem to see it in that light at all.Even more worrying….dont you think?
Anyhow she seems the type of busy “executive” firing her nannies by the sack full…..

From the Sky News Web Site:
“Meanwhile, the Portuguese Attorney General’s office has said a review of the formal suspect status of the McCanns will take place at “the appropriate time”.”
Define appropriate time?”

Define “review” …

But ,hey , other European countries,are already ,calling the U.K. as a 3 th. World country.
Maybe ,the U.K. Govem. shouldn’t have been so close to the Portuguese Govem,

This is a really stupid fuss about Rowan Pelling. She’s a humorous writer…so she’s being humorous about her son’s adventures/misadventures to make a point about not wrapping kids in cotton wool.
It has nothing to do with Madeleine and nothing to do with leaving a child alone while she goes off drinking.
So why drag it in?

Ah…i see!
I wouldnt know about this as I am not sufficiently read or informed but may be ask “older” posters when they come in ok?
Why did the mcFools put themselves in this situation? THIS is the real mystery.
What a bunch of idiots really….
