Madeleine McCann: Paedos From Lamp-Posts, Hating Fiona Philips And JonBenet Ramsey
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann
QUEENSFERRY GAZETTE (Scotland): “We’ve been ad”
A CONCERNED mum has spoken out about the potential hazards posed by new outdoor advertising boards. Janette Sheppard is also worried that other parents may think the boards are simply lamp-posts.
Lamp-posts, for paedos to hide behind… Like those (G)litter bins…
She said: “These have just sprung up – one is outside my son’s primary school. At first glance it would be easy to mistake them for lamp-posts, but they are actually advertising boards.”
The wonders of modern technology. Who would have thunk it. Go on…
“There is a small electronic strip at the top which could be used by the council to post information if a child goes missing. I believe the council also gets some revenue from the boards.”
Making money from missing kiddies. For shame!
“My concern, as a parent, is if the council thinks it’s appro-priate to put one of these boards outside a primary school. Our kids are already inundated with advertising – do they really need more? And what kind of advertising is it going to be?”
Sweets. Peados. Guns. Snuff movies. You know, the usual kids’ stuff…
A West Lothian Council spokesperson said: “The new signs are part of the Amberwatch system, which is designed to allow urgent safety messages to be relayed instantly to the local community. The similar Amber Alerts system in America has been credited with helping locate over 100 missing children, and the parents of Madeline McCann have campaigned to have such a system installed across Europe.”
So there it is. It’s there to advertise when a child goes missing; and when a child doesn’t go missing…
DAILY TELEGRAPH: “Review: My Sister, My Love by Joyce Carol Oates”
Review: My Sister, My Love by Joyce Carol Oates - The unsolved murder of a child star is too close to real events for David Robson
A child star… Get ready to be entertained…
Novels based on real-life crime stories always leave a slightly queasy taste. Novels based on unsolved real-life crime stories leave an even queasier one.
Hands over mouths; heres it comes…
There are probably writers already working on fictionalisations of the abduction of Madeleine McCann, but it is hard to feel much respect for them.
They don’t do it for the respect. They do it for the money; like the newspapers…
The same applies, mutatis mutandis, to this ethically questionable piece by Joyce Carol Oates, inspired by a crime that was the talk of America in 1996, when a six-year-old child beauty pageant contestant called JonBenet Ramsey was found brutally murdered in the basement of her parents’ house in Colorado.
DAILY STAR: “THAT’S VERY IRRITATING - FIONA IS BRITS’ MOST HATED CELEB”
IT’S Fiona Philips, GMTV’s soon-to-be ex-self-righteous-Labour-cheering-ultra-violet-toothed-baby-boasting-braying-nodding-head.
FIONA Phillips is more annoying than the washout summer, chavs and Heather Mills.
Mills isn’t annoying; Mills is entertaining.
Her on-screen gaffes include telling the parents of missing Madeleine McCann: “There are light moments. You’ve acquired this odd celebrity status.”
A gaffe? No way. This is the highest praise possible in the GMTV lexicon. GMTV renders everything it touches a celebrity: car crash victim, prime minister, doctor etc. are all touched by the GMTV celebrity wand. A celebrity… nothing bigger, nor better…

Amaral in Vigo:
Amaral said that the fact that McCanns would be considered as “charged” created a turning point in the investigation between the Portuguese and English police. “There was a spoken understanding between two policemen to continue the line of investigation seriously, facing the possibility that her death had occurred in the apartament but, suddenly, the English changed course without any coherent technical explanation. It was always strange how the couple were treated, even after they were considered suspects, and the police information to which they occasionally had access.”
Very strange indeed….very clearly said in his book as well.Stuart Prior sudden “wariness”,fussing over all and everything…..
The truth will come for Madeleine

“….He (payne)described Madeleine as a girl communicative, cheerful, obedient behaving very well. Madeleine’s parents are very sociable, known by many people, kind and affectionate. Madeleine is the daughter of two elements of the couple. . It was very desired and is the result of insemination “In Vitro”. There was no difference in treatment between Madeleine and the twins. He did not know if Madeleine is suffering from any disease, or whether she is on medication. It has nothing more to say who could advance the investigation…..”
Madeleines personality swings depending on whom talks about her…any need to say “there was no difference in treatment between the twins & Madeleine?”? there was then?
I simply do NOT like the guy
His statement is full of contradictions …pact of silence methink

Hi
amazing silence! I thought they would be extremely busy doing charity work,setting up international kidnap alert systems and over all, sell wonderful interviews all over the world.
WHY is this not happening? They are not arguidos anymore they can speak freely cant they?they can answer all the questions without breacking the secret of sumary…. so why are they so silent?

I shall try just one more time, and then Scroll forever.
The protagonist has a duty to prove the POSITIVE = MM WAS abducted
The duty of the antagonist is merely to show that this hypothesis is flawed.
If people cannot grasp that then they should certaily never be allowed to serve on a jury, nor to vote.

Geography not one of your strong points then clueless, unless they moved N’castle out of Northumberland, perhaps a guide dog might come in useful to find your relatives house.
