Blimey - Only 7 people saying YES so far

I wonder if the Judge will see it.

The problem is that as soon as Pam Gurney and her fellow socks know about this, they'll be voting "yes" repeatedly!

Usually when websites run polls like this they have people monitoring for obvious "stacking" of the votes by repeated votes from the same IP address, for instance.

At the time of writing, 262 nays and 13 ayes. If Pam gets wind of it she and her socks will have to go some to level the score. smilie

As there are 3623 members registered on this forum I don't think this poll is saying very much. It seems a waste of time even doing a poll if everyone doesn't participate (a bit like a general election actually. smilie

)

"It's only a very tiny minority of people that are criticising us" says Kate McCann "the VAST MAJORITY of people SUPPORT US"

Really Kate? REALLY?

Newintown - It is not our poll it is from a media outlet. That is significant in itself IMO.

ETA Poll is now standing at 342 NO & 18 YES.

Come on Pammy etc you have some work to do now to level it up.

by SchrodingersBody 20.06.14 7:52

Hmm..how many of those that voted yes, did so because ultimately this action might prove to be their downfall.

Sabina Mueller: "Sabina Mueller, German radio. How do you deal with the fact that more and more people seem to be pointing the finger at you, and they seem to imply that you might have something to do with it?"

Kate McCann: "To be honest, I don't actually think that is the case. I think that's a very small minority of people that are criticising us."
Kate McCann: "Errm... you know, we are very responsible parents ( i just COULDN'T make 'child care arrangements', for the particular night Madeleine was 'abducted', I did try, to be honest) and we love our children so much and I think it's only a very few people that are actually, errm... criticising us."

Really Kate? REALLY?
-------------------------------------------------------------------

probably 39 out of the 43 'no' votes' are the 38 'elite' Maddie Cops + BHH........... laughat

If they are NOT, K&G WILL be sooooooo 'FURIOUS" won't they?

That can't be a genuine quote from Kate surely?

by Guest 20.06.14 18:37

Apart from the bit in brackets, yes.

by AndyB 20.06.14 18:44

Thanks. It was the bit in brackets that I thought strange when they've never before claimed to have tried to get childcare. Take the brackets out and its classic Mcnonsense. Mind, the quote is from 2007 - it would be interesting to hear Kate's answer to the question today

by jeanmonroe 20.06.14 20:08

Ooops sorry.

MY in 'brackets': (reflecting KM's childcare 'statement' on Monday) banghead

ME!

There is encouragement for the McCanns as the latest poll count on the Portugal Resident website reveals a shift in their favour.

For the past two days, it has been running at 96% No, 4% Yes, which is a 24-to-1 majority for the 'No' side.

But today reveals a shift.

The latest results are:

NO - 1,125 (95%)

Yes - 54 (5%).

That brings down the proportion voting 'No' over those voting 'Yes' down from 24-1 to 19-1

by jeanmonroe 21.06.14 11:09

The shills desperately 'voting' trying to save the McCanns losing their 'deposit'? laughat

by aiyoyo 21.06.14 14:32

Has everyone voted ?

I voted NO.

by Guest 21.06.14 14:33

@Tony
That's 21-1 ;-)

When I did maths at school,

24 x 4 = 96 [so 24 to 1]

and

19 x 5 = 95 [so 19 to 1].

This is what they taught us in England, anyhow.

I can't speak for what they teach in ~~Holland~~ The Netherlands or France

NO.

Just refresh the page after the link you clicked on opens up.

by Guest 21.06.14 15:07

There's nothing wrong with your maths, Tony. But you use them on the basis of the percentages: No% is round-down and Yes% is round-up. I use them on the basis of the actual figures. You'll see you get to 21-1 too :-)
