MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY STAR: “MCCANNS’ OPRAH WINDFALL”
MADELEINE McCann’s parents are planning a big bucks interview with US chatshow queen Oprah Winfrey to boost their search fund.
They’ve cracked America. In yer face Barbara Walters.
It is understood Oprah, 54, would be willing to break the bank for a cosy chat with Kate and Gerry.
How the Star came to understand this is unsaid. But let’s look out for the “cosy chat” - the one performed before tens of millions of people. Who’s looking for the missing child? We’re watching the parents.

Here read this,Maria & Co….about their “friends”…..
Case shelved? you must be kidding
“The typed up hearings of the couple’s friends, carried out by the British police, before they were interrogated by the PJ after Madeleine’s disappearance, are collected in Appendix 886 of the final report. For the Portuguese authorities, the “very careful,” way in which the couple’s friends, “recalled,” the unfolding of the evening of May 3rd holds no emotion. For example, in the group, some of the friends had children asleep alone in their hotel rooms. Why did they not, instinctively, go to see if their children were OK after Kate reported Madeleine’s disappearance? They rushed to help look for Madeleine but they did not go to see if their children had also been abducted! This document is considered important by the authorities.”

‘We can thank God (as Justice Hogg might do!)’
I would imagine that at the moment Justice Hogg is rather more concerned with mundane matters; it is difficult to imagine anything more guaranteed to destroy cross-border co-operation between police forces and intelligence agencies over a broad spectrum than the McCanns’ behaviour over the last 3 months, facilitated by Justice Hogg’s original order, and then the events of 2cd April, 2008 as set out in her judgement.
Equally it is difficult to envisage anything more likely to undermine the willingness of people to assist the police within our borders than the prospect of their witness statements being handed out to all and sundry. And they don’t come much more sundry than Metodo 3…
Fortunately for all of us, Justice Hogg’s presumed hotline to God was disconnected on Monday, and the police and other agencies can set about trying to restore confidence in their counterparts around the world. Who knows, those counterparts might even some day trust us enough to pass information to us again….

Cheryl and C and C
Good news that a majority of the EU MEPs have….finally!!…agreed that a more consistent cross-border response is needed when child goes missing, something akin to the Amber Alert system in the USA.
Missing People, PACT and Missing Children Europe (major charities concerned with missing people, abducted children etc.) have been campaigning for this for years but with limited success at European Parliament level.
They very sensibly asked the Mcs to lend their support, believing that it would carry some weight. It would appear they were correct and the Mcs’ visits to Brussels and Strasbourg were successful.
(Not that we should worry about the Mcs’ support. It’s irrelevant to the issue. They simply gave their support, even at the worst possible time in their lives, because they were persuaded it would help. The PACT spokesperson said during their Brussels visit that the Mcs’ support was proving crucial in pushing on the campaign, but the charities themselves have been working towards this for years.)
That’s why June Johnson and chenier don’t need to worry about this being a knee-jerk reaction. Does Europe do knee-jerks?! This is only the start. There’s along way to go before anything actually gets done. This is bureaucracy at its best! There will be plenty of time for the experts to design a system appropriate for use. Even then it may not get through to the stage of being law. However, I do think there is now a glimmer of hope. JJ and chenier can trust groups like Missing People, for example, to use their influence to get the details right. They are the experts (as chenier reminded us so often……….before s/he realised they supported Kate and Gerry’s declaration!) and should know what they are doing.
What the Mcs have successfully done is raise awareness among MEPs that this is an urgent issue worthy of their concern.
We can thank God (as Justice Hogg might do!) or whatever we choose to thank when things go well, that this step has been taken. We can thank the Mcs for lending their support. If they are innocent, I hope this will make them feel just a little better in their loss and grief.
