About time. Should have happened years ago. Internet is a powerful tool for sure.

Delighted for Mrs Needham but does it mean that OG will reach a conclusion in April?

Is this an attempt to distract from the questions about all the money being spent on the Madeleine investigation?

Sounds like it doesn't it? People have been calling for this since Madeleine got all the media coverage. Still an insult that they won't match the expenditure in as much as it is putting a lower price on one child than another IYKWIMBlueBag wrote:Is this an attempt to distract from the questions about all the money being spent on the Madeleine investigation?

The text of this article from the Daily Mirror is quite revealing for many reasons which I'm too tired to go into this evening. It's not very often the Daily Mirror reports with accuracy but there are a few direct quotes from the police involved in the case.

The cynic in me is to allude that the two cases are simlar in the publics eye , and to right the publics [ concern ] that the McCann;s have being recieving preferential treatment .
More lose ends tied up . always a reason for there motives [ as PM says watch the Squirrel ].

Re: Ben Needham disappearance: £700,000 to fund police search
'Panic' reaction from the HO due to the possibility of the 'legal threat' by Ben Needham's family to the 'preferential treatment' the McCann's 'get' over ALL other 'missing' children?
I mean, who knows 'what' would come out in a COURT room, 'comparing' the 2 'cases'?
The McCann's cannot EVER be allowed to take the 'stand' UNDER OATH in ANY court room, imo.
They are not 'in court' in Portugal, their case there, is 'civil', not 'criminal'
I 'reckon' this SUDDEN, UNEXPECTED (we ain't got no money, due to 'cuts') Home Office 'grant' is purely to deter/defer the/ANY 'LEGAL THREAT' to the HO.

Exclusive: Major development in hunt for Ben Needham
There's been a major development in the search for missing Ben Needham as the Home Office announces it's to fund all further investigations. It follows years of pleas from the family for help from the British Government after the toddler, from Sheffield, went missing 24 years ago on the Greek island of Kos.
