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…

Matt
at least you can count
so nice that the mcc’s have ‘won’ their battle - I hope that they are not too hung over following their celebrations.
How many children do they have now-a-days?

‘A tribute to Madeleine’ …… very strange wording. Is it not the ‘norm’ to pay tribute to someone after they’ve died?

Fay Weldon….Independent….

Morning, Jo.
July 11th, 2008 at 9:02 am
So? wot did they win? a life sentence or somefin?
Since “thing” are churning here is an interesting link,showing the arrogance of some people in the mccanns defense: their very own lawyers sending “warning” to a portuguese prosecutor….
“If she was taken when she was sleeping by somebody she did not know she would have screamed the place down.” says Eileen mccann,the granma
….and this is really excellent,good fun straight from early morning hours
Read
“It has also emerged that Mr and Mrs McCann are conducting a secret investigation which they hope will clear them by Christmas”
…..I knew this: nothing to do with looking for Madeleine ONLY clearing their filthy name
….and that one
A source close to the legal team said: “The idea of carrying out an independent investigation is that if the Portuguese police claim one piece of evidence points one way, we can immediately use the same evidence to prove a different point.”
The source added: “We are leaving no stone unturned on this one.”
…… BEST quote ever! That makes my day! you bet you wont leave no stone unturned on that one
you”ve just proved it and you”ve been given the finger by the LP
