DAILY MIRROR: “McCanns win child alert fight MADELEINE”
Kate and Gerry McCann yesterday won their fight for an EU-wide missing child alert system, in tribute to their daughter Madeleine. A declaration supporting the couple’s plea attracted backing from at least 398 MEPs - more than half the 785 European Parliament members.
Or as the Mail said earlier in the week: DAILY MAIL: “Brussels throws out McCann’s appeal for European missing child alert system”
THE INDEPENDENT: “Cultural Life: Fay Weldon, Author”

If profit rather than enthusiasm is the bottom line, all you get is variations on what made a profit last year.
On it goes…

If the secrecy is lifted I wonder if characters from the “twilight world” will try to solve it. [...]

I know that the “twilighters” [and even the "darker" ones] are not particular fond of child abusers and the likes, to put it mildly. In fact those usually have the most difficult of times if they land in jail.
