On the contrary, we saw a program in which they were shown to be the reason for the embarrassment of a nation and where it was shown that the reason for Mr Amaral having been sacked was the fact that UK police force was biased in their favour (thus the 2 historic moments).<br /><br />We see no reason to see this program in any way in favour of the McCanns.<br /><br />It was very interesting to watch Mr Gambles position. Very revealing and very telling. If he’s reading this, we would like to thank him for confirming many things.<br /><br />Mr Murdoch doesn’t disdain the couple. Much the same way he never liked or disliked them. Those are feelings one has for the people one relates with. The McCanns are not in Mr Murdochs league. He, in our opinion, doesn’t have any empathy or antipathy for them. For him they only represent money and status.<br /><br />Money as in profit.<br /><br />Status as in it was, up to 2011, good to be on the McCanns side fo the fence, from 2011 to 2013 to be silent about them and from now on, as we have explained in this post, to be against them.<br /><br />If we are reading this correctly, this Sky News program was a piece that fits our puzzle to perfection. We hope Anthony Summers book ‘Looking for Madeleine’ to be out next week does too. What he and Robbyn Swan say in the program seem to indicate that:<br /><br />Summers: “It was a case of too many cooks, all well-intentioned, and spoiling the broth of the initial investigation. And then the mistakes, or should I say, missteps, began to pile one upon another.”<br />Swan: “The problems that grew out of the race to help in the initial phase of the Madeleine investigation, the problems of the lack of co-ordination between the Portuguese and the British police, the bad feeling, the lack of translation ability, those things have not been fundamentally addressed.”Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-78410774854162096122014-09-02T11:03:22.870+01:002014-09-02T11:03:22.870+01:00Article in The Times this morning too - same sort ...Article in The Times this morning too - same sort of thing obviously.

The report suggested establishing a national centre for missing children, combining the resources of top experts and the best technology, but this has not been set up.<br /><br />But Gamble believes that the McCann investigation will eventually be solved, despite the setbacks. "Someone knows," he said.<br /><br />"I genuinely believe in my lifetime we will find out what happened. Relationships, loyalties change, and at some stage some person will come forward."Gamble has refused to release the full details of the report's findings.

That created a sense of chaos and a sense of competition, people putting their hand up and wanting to help, and in many instances, in my opinion, wanting to be seen to help.<br /><br />"If we look at it honestly, there were some in leadership roles who wanted to represent their organisation, to be seen to take a lead role and to be seen to provide critical input in this – and that made it difficult for a small, regional force like Leicestershire."<br /><br />He went on: "I've no doubt relationships from the outset with the Portuguese were impacted by it and I think that had a long-term negative effect on the investigation. I think to this very day the Met investigation team that's engaged now are still having to manage and massage that relationship and perhaps, to be fair to the Portuguese, mend some fences that were trodden on in the early days."<br /><br />Within weeks of Madeleine's disappearance in May 2007, Scotland Yard, the National Police Improvement Agency and CEOP had all given advice to Portuguese police. The Crimestoppers charity published a separate appeal hotline and No 10, the Home Office and the Foreign Office were all demanding briefings from the various agencies.<br /><br />Gamble explained that the Portuguese police's initial response to the case was chaotic and haphazard. He said this was "alien to the more structured police you would expect here in the UK. There was not a sense of order".<br /><br />"In the first instance, the parents should be your number one suspects," he told Sky. "In most cases, in the first few golden hours, as you collect evidence, you can then rule them in or out. And that was one of the huge flaws in this – people didn't focus on clearing the ground beneath their feet in those chaotic first few hours that led into the haphazard first few weeks.<br /><br />contAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-21765531702736525332014-09-01T22:07:35.240+01:002014-09-01T22:07:35.240+01:00Have they been reading us?

Now we have the SY investigation which is quite clearly indicating that the cover up is not restricted to the tapas 9.
