According to some of the papers today the 'police know who killed Madeline', the BBC are saying they've not had it confirmed (by their people). Though I think I'll pass on guessing on who the police think is responsible, as I'm sure a lawyer would pop up particularly if I guess wrong.

Was that an actual recent front page?
That Diana stuff about not flying flag at halfmast. Whats going on there? Are you dragging up something that was buried 10 years ago and superimposing it with recent Maddie stuff?
Or did the paper really publish that?
I don't get the daily express or read it online.

Yes, Lorna, that is a real newspaper front cover. It is in fact today's.
What I'm worried about is the fact that if Maddie is found alive, all the 'missing' footage will probably show up at her 21st.
I know I shouldn't but that did make me chuckle rather loudly
I have sympathy for farmers with the F&M threat and parents with missing children - but I also had the
cynical thought
about whether the
Daily Mail
's free Children's Reference Library CD included instructions about how to ask your parents for a babysitter
I've held off posting in this thread until now, and apologies if I'm bringing up a point which has already been raised, but is it really so unreasonable to suggest the only reason why Madeleine McCann's disappearance has been in the public eye (no pun intended) for so long is because she is a pretty, flower-princess type from a respectable middle class family and whose photogenic face is a dream come true for the likes of Max Clifford?
All these companies endorsing the official campaign to find her, they're only in it for the extra business they will do on the back of it and it's unlikely any of them give a stuff about Madeleine or what her parents are going through.
How many of us seriously believe that if Madeleine McCann had been a black or Asian little boy from a run-down estate in Peckham and whose single mum was on benefits she would have received anywhere near the amount of column inches and/or airtime? I rest my case. It's the Diana factor all over again - people jumping on the bandwagon to feel good about themselves.
Welcome to the institutionally racist, institutionally classist, world of British media.
