'I couldn't make love to Gerry'

'I couldn't make love to Gerry'
As predicted, the McCanns' evidence to the Leveson inquiry was compelling. But while as always they seem to cut desperately sympathetic figures, when it comes to the demonisation of News International, something doesn't quite add up.

The Guardian reports:

Kate McCann told a hushed courtroom at the Royal Courts of Justice in London how she felt "totally violated" after the publication by the News of the World of her personal diaries in which she recorded her thoughts about her missing daughter.

She said the now defunct newspaper had showed "absolutely no respect for me as a grieving mother" when it ran the story in September 2008 under the headline Kate's Diary: In Her Own Words. "I'd written these words, my thoughts, at the most desperate time of my life," she said.

Absolutely fair, as far as the diaries are concerned, but it's worth noting that by May this year, Kate McCann had appeared to forgive News International for the intrusion. Forgiven them, in fact, to the extent she was prepared to let the Sun serialise revelations about her sex life.

The splash - one of several that week - began:

After Madeleine was taken from us, my sexual desire plummeted to zero.

Our sex life is not something I would normally be inclined to share and yet it is such an integral part of most marriages that it doesn't feel right not to acknowledge this.

The article which follows, as with the rest of the serialisation, is cringingly personal, was published just six months ago and was written entirely voluntarily. As it contemplates another round of devastating headlines tomorrow, News International might once again feel a little hard done by.

"I couldn't make love to Gerry"


Me neither

Nor me.

I'd rather go down on the Titanic ......

There may be some ers amongst the Tapas crew that might disagree!! - when perhaps?

The article is a good one though and it reflects the overall outcome and conclusion of thier perfomance I think, happy to dance with the devil wihen its to their tune but they throw an absolute tantrum if its not in keeping with their wider 'agenda'!! Swings(ers) and roundabouts eh?

Abandonment as the alibi for abduction, yeah.

Please please lets not talk about sex with Gerry

Having said that the OP is very good and is so true

Agreed Fuzeta - there are some things too gross to be mentioned, not that Kate thinks so!

After Madeleine was taken from us, my sexual desire plummeted to zero.

This is normally used when someone dies. It is a step too far to think that they would be trying to move away from abduction so this must just mean taken as in "taken away" - well, yes, that's right as well.
