Madeleine McCann: Child Alert, Daily Mail Knows And Fay Weldon
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
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”
Film
I went to see Ben Affleck’s Gone Baby Gone for Radio 3’s Saturday Review. “Emotionally disturbing” it claimed to be, with its echoes of the Madeleine McCann case, and so it was, and a welcome change from the dull, written-to-formula films that pour from major studios. If profit rather than enthusiasm is the bottom line, all you get is variations on what made a profit last year.
On it goes…

grins, well it’s been decorating the couch for three days now so it is high time. wish i had a linen cupboard to hide it in like gloria does. you can’t very well switch from gloss painting to ironing without getting it (paint) all over the place, so it’s had to wait. not that it doesn’t normally either though.

Gerry’s blog - Day 434, 10 July 2008
We have recently managed to have a break visiting family. Sean and Amelie have had a brilliant time and it has been great for me to spend so much time with them. Although this has been a relaxing break, it has been incredibly difficult for Kate and me to have been on holiday without Madeleine- it is all too apparent what is missing.
************
It is all too apparent WHAT is missing? wot? your wallet?the car keys? credit cards?
I am vomiting on the keyboard,guys
WHAT is missing is YOUR child,you fucking idiot
Thanks for giving me the confirmation that in your filthy eyes and mouth ,Madeleine is a “what” not a WHO
