Re: Sonia Poulton video 'We are not trolls to question disappearance of Madeleine McCann'

Excellent video and a very brave effort. I have never seen any of Sonia's tweets so I am not sure of why her name would be in the dossier. I fear that the Met police will only talk to her if they believe she has committed a crime of harassment or malicious communications or whatever the b##locks is they're trying to gwt people with now. They won't be interested in the whys and the wherefores. With that in mind they should also focus on the extremely insulting and abusive messages by the pros. But will they? Will they f##k.

They won't because the McCanns like having that level of support. It means they don't have to do it themselves
and the fact that the only people who believe their story - or which ever version they want you to believe today -
are clearly in need of urgent psychiatric help clearly does not worry them.
The fact that they do not dissociate themselves from the abuse and stalking is itself even more worrying.

by frost 08.10.14 11:56

well Katie Hopkins is all over the press for the tweet she made about the McCanns yet I cannot find one article reffering to Sonias video .

I don't think they want the video being circulated , too many home truths perhaps ?

I've been exchanging tweets with Sonia and would just like to say that I thought she did an excellent job both presenting the video and the content.

Thank you Sonia Poulton.... A breath of fresh air and honesty in this stagnant stinking pool of "churnalism"..I hope your words will galvanise others to turn away from their media masters and use their reporting skills to give us all a clear glass window to the world. thanks

If you look critically and carefully at what was presented by mainstream media you will see the journalistic sleight of hand they used to lend credence to their attack on Brenda Leyland.
Under a photo of the distressed McCann couple there were four tweet messages shown to demonstrate the cruel comments about the McCanns.

The trickery is that three acidic comments were juxtaposed with one single comment from Brenda Leyland aka sweepyface. Her comment was aligned to the other comments( asterisked out for legal reasons) and a less observant reader would think they were attributed solely to Brenda. This...I am sure...was not an error but a deliberate attempt to manipulate public opinion via their readership. What happened next was not as expected and Martin Brunt doorstepping Brenda was completely ugly in its execution.... No one should be so publicly exposed without permission or authority....and SKY News do not have such permissions or right to do so.

Brenda..you didn't believe the McCanns...nor do I and so many more are disbelieving of their account. Rest in peace xx

I've had a few arguments about that this week. People automatically took it that they were all Brenda's tweets as the press knew they would. They also presume that because its on Sky rolling news that Brenda must have done or said something terrible to warrant that exposure. The whole situation about Brenda is so sad and frustrating.

Katie Hopkins is no McCann supporter. Are you thinking of someone else?

Nope, deffo Katie Hopkins. Supporter or not she is able to put across a totally bullshit point of view and make it sound convincing. Right down to saying things like "everybody leaves their children alone sometimes". Or "if I were a Doctor I would certainly drug my kids so they would sleep more soundly", "my partners brothers often bath my daughter, it's all part of normal life". With soundbites like that and Sonia's predictable response it should make for interesting viewing.

I agree with you all - Sonia Poulton did brilliantly well to say it how it is. Well done her.

I know Katie Hopkins is not popular but, as some have mentioned, she did tweet along the lines of ' when will the McCanns realise that their negligence is at the heart of their grief? '. Fairly mild really, but I read somewhere that she had thousands and thousands (20,000 I think) "likes". I looked up Katie Hopkins on Facebook, but her page is only available to her friends and not the public.

I was wondering whether it is simply her 'friends' on FB who have notched up so many "likes"? Does anyone know how to add to that 20,000 or is it simply not possible? I would like to, but don't know how to. Does anyone have a link please?

However much people don't like Katie Hopkins, she is in the public eye and, it would seem, is not the avid McCann supporter she is made out to be. If she could be persuaded that there is much more to say about them than referring to their 'negligence', then she would be a worthwhile supporter of the so-called-'antis' in my view.

Anyway, I would just like to add my "like" to the thousands of others, if you can help me please.

As Winjoy says, If we could harness the focussed vitriolic Katie H to support the McCanns in public, as we all know journalism exists to sell media then it could be a golden opportunity to argue the other side. Don't barristers act as advocates every day of the week? Katie H on the McCann front vs Sonia P on the "antis, trolls,internet weirdos" front on behalf of the minority of people that are not inherintly good. As opposed to the thousands who are good and regularly write to the McCanns supporting the whooshing and clunking then that could be a very good debate. Especially if there were some audience participation. Just think, Andy Redman could be called in as an ajudicator.

If it's the same Katie Hopkins, she's not been doing herself any favours with some of her latest tweets!

In my opinion.

Would anyone, here, care to 'hazard' a guess as to what media 'story, sighting, 'exclusive', update, suspect, etc.,' (as a 'distraction'' away from BL's 'inquest', 'look here, not there') we'll be subjected to, before, or on, Thursday, 18th, December, 2014, (the date of BL's 'inquest') in 'connection' with the SY/OG 'investigation' into Madeleine's 'disappearance'?

I wonder if SP has thought to ask Sky news to broadcast this video she made in October?

As she appears to have the title of social affairs commentator when working for Sky news, I think this would make a good topic for Sky viewers.

Having been taken hostage in South Africa, looking down the barrel of a gun pointed at me was the most terrifying thing. Now there's some eejit on Twitter who likes to portray himself with semi automatic weapons and pistols and Poulton laughing about losers commenting on their blogs.

I give up. I really give up.

I just want to add that over the road the latest posts from people who disagree with Cristobell have just been removed within the last few minutes. There's been quite a discussion going on over there which I thought was fair - apparently not. Censorship abounds.

Resistor's comments are worth diddly squat so it would seem. However, Cristobell managed to post up the most dreadful comment from someone on her blog about Resistor yesterday.

Despite the complaints over there about this forum being run by a dictator and bully etc. - comments encouraged by their forum-owner - it's that forum where there really is only one way of thinking on certain issues. There's no restriction on here for those who are genuinely working towards the forum's objectives, and do so with politeness and can back up their opinions and speculations with at least a modicum of reasoning.

But back to the topic, how sad for Brenda Leyland that three out of the five people in the picture I posted were:

* a self-promoting attention-seeker who used the platform of that inquest, three days later, to announce that she was going to make a documentary tribute to Brenda Leyland (which has never appeared over a year later), who disgraced the inquest by thrusting a microphone and camera into an attendee quietly leaving the building, who then proceeded to brag across the internet about her bullying of that lady, and finally someone who has been shown up as an utter hypocrite by taking the Murdoch shilling month after month on the sofa of SKY News, the very news agency which hounded McCann-sceptic Brenda Leyland to an early death - AND

* a former member of CMOMM who left after calling this forum a 'cess-pit', and who had to be called out by the Coroner at the inquest after repeatedly muttering audibly during the inquest after being told not to - AND

* a menacing person seemingly obsessed with guns.

At least the former CMOMM member was a genuine McCann-sceptic
