Gerry McCann first item on news...

Well Interested there are victims and then there are the McCanns's ! The press started to print the truth and were instantly shut up and an apology was made by them. For £500,000 I think I would not mind that kind of victimisation. It would buy me a nice house, a nice car and quite a few luxury holidays

“Just remind me, are these the same people?
The same people who wrote a daily blog for 3 years for all to see?
The same mother who presumably used her diary for reference to write her book?
The same mother who shared her darkest thoughts on the infamous 'p129'?
The same mother who wrote about her sex life?
The same mother who was paid a huge sum by Rebekkah Brook's newspaper ?
The same couple who hired a publicist / media adviser who boasted he could control what appeared in the press?
The same people who contacted the media within hours of their daughter being 'abducted'
The same people who refused to cooperate with the police
The same people who did regular staged photo shoots in PdL
The same people who set up photo shots in The Vatican with the Pope
The same people who set up photo shots outside The White House
The same people who went on the Oprah Winfrey Show
The people who now complain about Press intrusion ?
Or have I missed the point here ?

I assume the next step will be soliciting donations for the Hacked Off campaign.

Thats them Matthew, good guess

It could do with a few more green arrows.

Thanks tigger, I had a look, decided to have my tuppenceworth, was told I had to sign up, filled in the required info....I would have a better chance of getting into Fort Knox.!!!!!! The user name wasn't long enough, the password had to have a mixture, the address verification was the last straw, I gave up.!!!

I'll go back and give a tick on PeterMacs' post......excellent.!!

I suppose he could team up with Prince Charles and reinvent the Looney Party.

And you know what Lioned, I'd bloody well vote for them, because they couldn't possibly be any worse than the shower of toerags we've got now. I am watching George Osbourne right now on Andrew Marr, and he's a dead ringer for Jimmy Carr with that smug face. I just want to slap it. Hard.

It took me about 12 attempts to register on the site and, when eventually I did manage to post something, it wasn't published!

Still, never mind, others have directed readers to the PJ files and other sources of information. Good old Pammy, bless her cotton socks, has advertised the Jill Havern site as "one of the vilest on the Internet" which is bound to encourage people to go there and find out, as I did several years ago, that there was a lot of interesting material which gave me the incentive to look into the case further and realise that it was even less fragrant than rotting sea bass.
