Obviously there isn't enough crime going on in London to keep them fully occupied.

And don't forget "call me Dave" clinging onto that kids corpse to get votes during the election by instigating this at the tax payers expense.

[Arginald Valleywater]

A complete waste of tax payers money. It happened in Portugal, not the UK.

I know its been said before,but if it was a single mum out partying in ,leaving her kid in a tower block on its own,the press would destroy her. The McCanns leave their kid alone,uncared for,and they get the kid glove treatment by the press.W hy?? Because they are middle class.live in a nice house,and have good jobs.

Just be careful what anyone says about MM... Team McCann is large & excellent at tracking down any one who doesn't sing from their hymn sheet...

what ever happened to that poor lad Ben Needham, kidnapped in Greece in the early 90's... no one gave a toss and still doesn't .... sad very very sad!

"Team McCann is large & excellent at tracking down any one who doesn't sing from their hymn sheet..."

No, they just sue people who slander and libel them.

Seems a reasonable approach to me. Why should they allow media organisations to print a pack of lies?

As for Ben Needham, there have been lots of stories over the years about him in the press. Even though it is more than 20 years since he disappeared, the UK press are still running stories on him e.g.

That's an interesting story in the link.

Quite possible that Kerry Needham's request for the guy to be DNA tested could go nowhere.

I gusess the guy could just refuse to be tested, he's not been accused of committing any crime.

I think if I was in his position I'd refuse the test becuase I wouldn't want to know, it's all to late now and it's just going cause unnecessary trouble for him.

Yes quite correct. In fact Ben Needham's mother recently thanked the media for their continued interest in the story.
