Daily Mail, I'm Not Surprised You Pulled The Story

I've pulled one or two of my own before today, and they weren't anywhere near as outlandish as Kate McCann's latest rant from the asylum, nowhere near at all.

But it is my sad duty to inform you that you weren't quite quick enough. Seemingly, and understandably, the content being so bizarre, so off the wall, that the story was grabbed by someone who appreciated what the life expectancy of that story might be; might be that is, before someone at the Mail woke up and pulled what I can only describe as a gem.


As for the rest of it, barking mad, your two luvies are barking mad. I do so hope you enjoy a closeness of relationship in the future, as that which you have enjoyed in the past.

It's only fair you must agree, now that the Daily Mail has become so synonymous, so inextricably entwined with the Doctors McCann, that many of us can't tell you apart, see you as one as it were.

And should you doubt my diagnosis regarding the mental health of your venerable pair, might I just ask you to look at the photograph below.

It's there isn't it, it's been there since day one, pity you couldn't see it?




Madeleine’s mother hits out at ‘fluffy worthless promises’ as appeal fund is set to run dry
By Vanessa Allen
Last updated at 10:24 PM on 2nd November 2010

Madeleine McCann’s mother yesterday condemned politicians for their ‘fluffy, worthless’ promises to help find her missing daughter.

The 42-year-old spoke out as she and husband revealed that their multi-million pound appeal fund will run dry within months.

Kate McCann accused the Government of giving up the hunt for the child who went missing shortly before her fourth birthday. She said a series of ministers had shrugged off her pleas for help.
Tireless: Kate and Gerry McCann have warned the fund to find their missing daughter will run out of money
‘I don’t want to be appeased, and that’s what I feel we’re getting. We need action, I don’t need fluffy worthless words,’ she said.

The couple have written an open letter, begging for political and financial help and launched an online petition to lobby the British and Portuguese governments for a formal review of the case.
Mr McCann said: ‘We have tried in vain to get the authorities to play their part but our requests have seemingly fallen on deaf ears.’

Madeleine vanished in 2007 during a family holiday in the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz.

Huge effort: Madeleine McCann went missing in May 2007
Portuguese police shelved an 18-month investigation into the disappearance after clearing her parents as formal suspects, and the case has remained closed.

Mr and Mrs McCann, of Rothley, Leicestershire, have met a series of ministers in the hope that the case will be re-opened or a cold-case review of the investigation launched.

Their hopes were raised when the Labour government looked at the feasibility of an Interpol review of the disappearance.

But when they met Home Secretary Theresa May in August, they learned the new Home Secretary had not read the report.

The McCanns have used £2million in public donations to pay for private detectives.
But heart consultant Mr McCann, also 42, said the fund would run dry early next year, and begged for donations.

Mrs McCann said: ‘We can’t stop trying to find Madeleine – or at the very least find out what’s happened.’

The Home Office said: ‘The Government wants to ensure that everything feasible is being done to progress the search.’


Update: I see there is a sanitised version back online, hardly surprising I don't suppose; that Vanessa Allen, she does get carried away so when she writes about her darlings.


What a tip of the bonnet, and a mighty flourish of hat, do I owe to poster, "Maebee" for having the foresight to save this... this... do you know; I'm quite at a loss for words to describe it.

Paul Dacre Daily Mail Your Silence Speaks Volumes



What gives mister Dacre, I would have thought this story would have been right up your street, just your cup of Darjeeling so to speak?

I do think you are missing the boat with this one Paul, I really do. Good heavens man, there's enough McCann Agony in this one story alone to keep you going for months, and proper agony it will be at that, this you can believe. But we don't hear a word from you, not a one.

I seem to be quoting this bloke a lot of late, I hate being repetitive but it just fits the bill perfectly as it were. In fact given the circumstances of last week it's almost as if Mister Orwell wrote it with you and all your chums in mind. I mean come on, even you would have to admit the bonnet ain't a bad fit at all, not at all it ain't.

‘Do remember that dishonesty and cowardice always have to be paid for. Don’t imagine that for years on end you can make yourself the boot-licking propagandist of the McCanns*, or any other régime, and then suddenly return to mental decency. Once a whore, always a whore.’ As I Please (*Soviet Regime)


But I'm not so sure now, about it being perfect that is, not after reading this bit anyway: then suddenly return to mental decency. You know where I'm going with this don't you Mister Dacre, returning to 'mental decency,' although I'm sure that should read 'moral decency,' no matter, either word is academic as you can well imagine. Returning to mental, or to moral decency is not an option open to you is it? Your colours are so firmly nailed to the McCann mast that I'm sure even a creature such as yourself wouldn't for shame scurry rat-like from the the leaking SS McCann.

In a nutshell, if you'll pardon the mixed metaphors, you are up a gum tree Mister Dacre' up a gum tree without a paddle. And to add to your woes, the sharks are circling, they can smell blood and they are hungry, circling for three years now, constantly suffering a deficient and enduring diet of pap and drivel. Courtesy, I hardly need to add, of your dear self and your dear chums. The sharks circle, and they wait; and ask not for whom they wait, they wait for you.

Now talking of 'McCann Agony' you might expect any link I offer would be to some of the monumental amount of 'McCann Agony' that Paul Dacre has previously printed in his little rag. It is to the Mail I'm going to send you though, but to another story of a 'Mother's Agony' the who's agony you will have to see for yourself, for I don't think you would believe me if I told you.

This particular article has no equal, it is peerless, and it is so for a number of reasons that will become all too apparent, and it is with that, that might I ask of you with the know how, can you please save the page for posterity. I am assuming this can be done?

Oh deary me, I've just found a gem at the bottom of the page.

David Rose has been investigating miscarriages of justice for 25 years and has written several books on the subject.

Just like Paul Dacre has been an editor for .......whatever.




English translation of the full text of the Appellate Court decision that recently overturned the ban on Dr. Gonçalo Amaral's book, “Maddie - A Verdade da Mentira”, which has been commonly known to English-speaking people as “Maddie - The Truth of The Lie”. Translated, produced and published by journalist blogger Joana Morais, sans spots, can be read here.

Found it, two in fact.

Paul Dacre is a Slag

As luck would have it, I'm working on a big Daily Mail post as we speak. I shall be posting it at the other place sometime over the weekend.

The Daily Mail offering us another perfect example of it's shabby agenda and quality of reporting that we have become accustomed to from Paul Dacre's shitty little rag.

But the Sun has gone with the same ridiculous connection you might say, why target the Mail?

It's all a question of honesty dontcha know. You see the Sun knows it's a shitty little rag, it doesn't try to hide the fact, it has no pretensions to offer itself as anything other than what it is, an arsewipe extraordinare.

But Dacre's McMail presents us with the same merde cloaked in some kind of, unlike the Sun, pretentious middle class piety.

Which, in my book, makes it, although you might not think possible, more dishonest than the Sun, doubly so in fact.

ETA: A question I would like to ask, perhaps one of you might know the answer.

Apart from the obvious, ie, being shut out in the cold news wise by Dot Gov, (if applicable to dot gov of course.) and contempt of court, just what would be the penalty for defying a gagging order?

The McCann Twins: Que Sera, Sera


On reflection I have decided to make this a separate post. Not least so I can illustrate it.
Edited


This whole thing started life as a reply in the comments section, like the noses of various people it's just kept growing.


~ ~ ~

Rather than use the comments section, where I have neither the luxury to edit, or to add to, I thought I might furnish a reply here, to a comment left on this post, which I also bring here.


I do need that luxury, it's getting quite late and I have had a busy, but welcome day away from these pages.

Should you feel so inclined, please don't hesitate to add your own thoughts on the subject.

This then, posted by Anonymous, and might I appeal once again that you use some form of nickname. As you compose and leave your comments here, or anywhere else for that matter, you have your own inherent sense of identity, but to to me you are just one more anonymous among dozens of others, that I can neither relate to, or develop any kind of rapport with.


The subject, the already much discussed future of Sean and Amelie McCann.

Anonymous, and possibly American? wrote:

Whilst I share the emotions expressed here about the McCanns, I refuse to accept that the twins are doomed to become equally despicable people.

There are many cases where children grow up to utterly surprise "nature" and to choose an entirely different path from that of their parents.

Those two little people do have a chance, even raised by beasts, to become honorable decent members of society. Don't write them off, they are too young to be sentenced to that type of prediction.

My fury with the McCanns themselves is exasperated by the fact that social services has not stepped in to protect the twins from them - parents who, at the very least, were guilty of severe neglect and more likely guilty of many other crimes.

Nor has the extended McCann family stepped in (as far as anyone knows). That family is full of people who undoubtedly know the depth of the lies and the danger to the twins. Nothing can be done for Maddie now, but SOMETHING could be done for her siblings.

I refuse to believe they are doomed. It won't be an easy life if they are raised by their natural parents, but maybe there is a spark somewhere in those two that will ignite when they mature.

In the hope that Sean and Amelie surprise the world...




What I think dear Lady, is entirely academic, what will be will be.

What I am saying is, that such a start in life should not be wished on any child. But that start is but what it is, a start. As each day passes, that day, and each and every day to come, those children will have spent it as the siblings to the most famous missing girl in the world.

And as each and every day that passes, every one of those days will have have been spent as the offspring of Kate and Gerry McCann. And I have, as I am sure you will appreciate, little need to elaborate on the significance of that particular cast of the die.

Whereas you or I might choose to disassociate ourselves from this grotesque pantomime, for whatever period of time we may choose, that same luxury will never be afforded to Sean and Amelie McCann. I fear ne're a day will pass that they will not be reminded of the situation that surrounds them, and often quite cruelly I shouldn't wonder, 'orrible little bleeders being what they are, 'orrible little bleeders.

Theirs will be the most unenviable of positions, aggravated day upon day, by their own inevitable maturing, and with that maturing, an ever increasing awareness of just what has really come to pass, and just exactly what it is that constitutes the make up and the moral fibre of their parents.

The moral fibre of the parents, life on Mars.

Just how long they will have to endure this growing realisation, will of course be dependant on the time-scale before this case reaches the only conclusion it can; the prosecution of the McCanns. And it is a question of when, not if. There will come a point, well we have already reached that point and passed it as a matter of fact, but their will come a point where their guilt will become even more so undeniably obvious, that there will be no other option available, other than to prosecute our parents of the year. A title I must add, now held by them for four consecutive years, quite amazing isn't it?

What must be understood, is that things can never improve for the McCanns, they can only deteriorate. Time is not their friend, the same each and every day that I speak of, is just another day in the worsening of their situation, and another day of delaying the inevitable.

Jim Gamble, Brian Kennedy, Clarence Mitchell, and all others of their ilk, oh, and I would be remiss were I not to mention the Editors of our wonderful National Press, reserving special mention for Paul Dacre of The Mail.

Forgive me this digression, which is far from my original post, for flying off on this little tangent, but during editing, and after adding "National Press" to the mix, came to the fore, the words: 'so much so that it should be "Shouted from the rooftops,"' which in turn led to just the briefest of Google Image searches.

Well as you probably know, I don't do supernatural, but the result of that search was a tad jaw dropping to say the least, because it has never happened before, in fact it's usually the complete opposite when I go a searching, but lo there it was, first piccy on the first page. So much so that it got me to thinking, is there a big picture provider up in the sky? Well I don't think there is, but I wasn't about to incur his wrath if there was such a magnificence, because we all know what them buggers are like when it comes to wrath, by gum we do!

If you don't believe me give it a try yourselves, shout it from the roof tops, for all I care!
And then not only that, another search, this time for 'daily mail kate mccann' brought forth a cry of "fuck me!" words so reminiscent of the duchess. very naughty linky, and not one for you gals. Taken from the even naughtier, well vulgar really,original of.... no perhaps not.

Which all boils down to, and results in, via a somewhat serpentine , if a not altogether circuitous route, this here piccy.



The Mail and Kate's agony, yes it's fucking agony alright.


Where the Divil was I? Ah yes!


Not least those that have aligned themselves with, and attempted to protect the McCanns, in, I must add, in ways so utterly and obviously transparent, that as to be beyond embarrassing; these people aren't clever, these people are fools, fools in the extreme.

When this house of cards comes tumbling down, as inevitably it must, so will these people come tumbling down, as inevitably they must.




And this is, and will be, the climate in which these two poor unfortunates find themselves, and it is in this climate that they will have to aspire, to mature into balanced adults.




A.task, that I think will be as equally difficult as it is daunting, and not one that should burden the shoulders of adolescents, never mind the shoulders of children of such tender years.
Though I might wish them every success in their endeavours, do I think they will succeed? no, not in truth I don't.

Everything that I have written here, we could disregard, we could say it's totally inaccurate, wrong in the extreme, would then I change my opinion? not in the least, why?

Why?

Porque? 2008.
Porque? 2008.

Por Que? 2009.
Por Que? 2009.

Yer Fuckin What? 2010.

Those kids are fucked. Nice one mummy and daddy.


In duty of care, Leicester Social Services, as Leicester Constabulary, as the Serious Organised Crime Agency, as the National Policing Improvement Agency, as the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre, the list is endless, in that duty of care have, quite simply, been derelict. Whether we could ad a tag to Social Services, with the same ease that we could add it to the rest of this shabby bunch, I really do not know, but rest assured we can add the tag, criminality with an ease that is more than a little disturbing and should give us all reason for concern.

This little group, charged with upholding the law of the land and to do so with honesty, with integrity, and with dignity, have failed their charge, as equally and as shamelessly as they have failed Madeleine McCann.

The are worthy of such a tag, worthy of such an accolade, they have earned it, and they have earned it with distinction.



Goncalo Amaral, Policeman. Dignity in the face of adversity.




And regarding the rest of the family, I don't think I want to discuss these people tonight, or tomorrow, or at all in fact.


And finally, of dignity, wouldn't it be nice if the Mail discovered a little, not to mention the parents.

This from the Mail, and yes, the date is correct.

Blank-faced and hiding behind her hair, she appeared almost catatonic as she stood silently beside her husband, clutching, as always, Madeleine's favourite toy, called Cuddle Cat by the little girl. The Daily Mail, Paul Dacre Editor.
