And I dare say they'll sue you if you suggest otherwise?

I think the thing that winds a lot of people up, is that if a single teenage mother who lived over the shops on Ulster Avenue had left her kids like that to go to the Flying Horse, they'd have been taken off her so fast that your head would spin.

Also I suspect the media coverage may not have been so favourable.

I was referring to Libero's comment about the 'normality' of hiring a former Government spin doctor to handle the media.

Precisely.

Zero scrutiny of the McCanns, and any attempt to scrutinise them has been met with threats of legal action, or a complete wall of silence.

Yes but it all seems part of your thinly veiled view that they had something to do with her disappearance.

I don't think they employ him, a benefactor pays for his services on their behalf. And, to be fair, the situation is by no means a normal one media-wise, they need someone to be a gatekeeper/spokesperson.

I'm sorry, but their conduct throughout the investigation is probably the prime reason why a non-insignificant number of people believe they, at the very least, know more than they are letting on.

The refusal to cooperate with Portuguese questioning, their uncharacteristically favourable treatment by both the authorities and the media, as well as their willingness to litigate at the mere mention of something being amiss. Involved or not, you can't deny that it doesn't help them.

I mean, there are some very very innocuous questions that they refused to answer:

On his own website Mitchell states "He was seconded to the Foreign Office in 2007 to assist the McCann family with media handling following the disappearance of their daughter Madeleine in Portugal."

At some point Kennedy took over, as is well documented. He was being paid £80k a year by Kennedy, however Kennedy is no longer footing the bill and hasn't been for some time. So who does?

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/sep/02/marketingandpr.madeleinemccann

I think it's fair to assume the fund/the family now pay him as and when, the article talks about the payments from Kennedy in past tenths.

In fairness it's never been 100% clear how anything is paid for due to the secrecy around "the fund"

You're still keen on repeating the same untruths and gossip as before.

You, along with many others, decided you knew better a long time ago and these people haven't suffered enough, and will never suffer enough.

It's the same routine each time the subject comes up.

There are more factual sites that cover your questions but you prefer to cite the same outlets which confirm what you want to believe.

Your OP is about a new suspect, yet within a few posts you've moved away from him and straight back onto the parents.

A quick look at those 48 'questions' and I can already see that 46 mentions this mythical blood. There was no blood found in any car, but there was a suggestion of some dna transference. But you're not interested in that.

It doesn't sound so exciting does it.

Honestly, shame on those speculating on how a young child died and being so determined to spread gossip and rumour.

That's a bit of a leap and isn't a fair insinuation.

I'm not married to any belief about who did or didn't have something to do with the disappearance, I just have serious doubts about the official narrative.

It is the view of a lot people these days but more importantly it was the view of the Portugese and Leicestershire police after they completed their investigation. They concluded that Madeleine died as a result of an accident and the Mccann's covered it up. All of the files from the investigation are available to the public online. There were 15 DNA markers that were a match for Maddie from bodily fluids found in the boot of the McCann's hire car. In some states in America that is enough to convict people.

You may well be right that they're footing the bill as and when in recent years if Kennedy isn't still funding his involvement, although not sure that article suggests that.

I don’t believe that’s true. The constant nudge nudge, wink wink directed at the McCann’s is pretty disgusting imo.

I'm pretty sure Kennedy's involvement is next to nothing these days, appreciate the article doesn't confirm this and happy to be corrected if any one knows different.

I’m sure that’s right but it isn’t their fault is it?

They made a terrible mistake but don’t you think they’ve paid for it a million times over?
