Humanist, I am thinking along the same lines.
What's more: how come no impartial party is monitoring what is happening in that courtroom?
Could not the European Commission send someone over? Well enough paid to do so?
It's about the rights of all of us, about freedom of speech, about justice.
How come Joana Morais, journalist, who has been running/enabling the MCF forum for years now, thus profiling herself big time, is not there at the moment??
How come all the others, Astro/Kazlux fluent in Portuguese and translators of the files, are not present?
Or willing to translate at least?

I fail to understand, it gets me more worried by the hour..

Hi there, thanks Admin for allowing me to join in and reply :) Para, first of all I'm not a journalist (thank god, ungrateful profession that one must be); secondly if I wasn't there was only because I couldn't due to personal life issues, just like Astro and Kaz, neither live in Lisbon. I do what I can to translate relevant material in my free time. Cheers and thanks to all who keep fighting for Justice for Maddie, and for all others who have been deeply affected by the McCanns stories [insert you know what instead of stories].

Hi Joana, great to see you here roses

No Fate Worse Than De'Ath wrote:BerylJ, I can't see the picture you mention but this isn't the infamous "abduction" flat that the McCanns were in. It's a different one owned by a Hubbard couple - no known connection to the reverend and his wife - which some people think the McCanns may have been in temporarily but there's nothing as yet to substantiate that.

Andrew H has a blog here - he appears to be a motorbike enthusiast and a good photographer too - blog about trip to PdL and Spain.

Echoing your welcome!

Yes, it certainly is.
And where would we all be without her work?

Blundering about like I was in 2007 probably, until I read her blogs -she's a real treasure.

Yes, it certainly seems to be Brunt. The last thing he tweeted was on Thursday pm saying KM was going to give a statement that evening - nothing from him after that. Perhaps that was `the statement` on Friday instead so he didn`t bother to tweet or report anymore. Still think its odd that he didn`t tweet or report that the case didn`t proceed in the afternoon and why.

Indeed Woofer. Very unprofessional of Sky, who ran this story non stop on Thursday, then dropped it like a hot brick

The statement was on Thursday and that footage was from Thursday.

I do agree that Brunty's disappearing act following his tweet about the statement is most odd.

It is indeed Mr Brunt! He appears to be hiding from them, why would that be?

You're one of the big wheels turning, despite this other life that demands attention.
Bisous, beijo :-*

No Fate Worse Than De'Ath wrote:LJ: to be fair (even to a McCann supporter!) the Rev Hubbard is in what was then his church in PDL, hence the gilded background; not an unusual or pretentious place to find a minister.

I know it was in the church (IIRC it is a catholic church where he can have some services) where many other backgrounds are possible. In this nothing is by coincident.

Hi Joana, thank you so much for all the news and translations from Portugal, they have been invaluable. Great to see you here :)

by Guest 16.09.13 7:20

Hi xklamation, Joana so glad you are still there! I was really worried, in case you'd been whoosh- clucked!
My sincere apologies for calling you a journo, while you are a publicist and far more. i am praying your difficulties will soon be over. You're always there when it's important in this maddening Maddie case, hence my worries and misgivings.
Again my thanks for all you have been doing to write our history and defend our feedom of speech & democracy.
I do hope some true reporting will come out of that courthouse on the next sittings.
I am praying justice will be done, at long last.
If so, it's also due to your relentless efforts to keep the Maddie Case in the public domain,
Thank you
Sending you my love, prayers and kindest regards

Were there any more tweets from D Levy as to why he was at the Police Station in Portugal on Friday?

Haven't seen anything but it is a long thread now and may havef missed it.

I would like to thank Joana too for all she has done and for the translations she has tirelessy done.
