Just pointing out what was written. The Sun being close to the couple n all, you’d think abducted would be a given.

Do you think the Sun have been privately briefed by the Met then?  Or has a memrandum been sent out to the media by the government to cease and desist the use of the A word...? 

[Mr Gray]

It's a sign of how little sceptics have to support their argument that they should take so much encouragement to such an insignificant detail

Apart from the headline that story is exactly the same as the previous one shared by Brietta.

In that article too the Home Office hadn't received an official request from Scotland Yard.

Ergo a rehash with a sensational headline and IMO totally pointless.

Apologies Erngath for earlier misreading your post.

Not at all but if the McCanns have been ruled out, as many on here claim, then shouldn’t the word be abducted not disappeared?

The link I provided states the Sun contacted the home office, so I don't see why it's in any way amusing that FaithLilly is discussing what is said in The Sun. It's hardly from an anonymous 'source close to the family' like so much of the McCann clap-trap stories.

"The Met Police said earlier this week it was 'in dialogue' with the Home Office over more funding to carry on the 11-year hunt - which has cost £11million to date.

But the Home Office today told The Sun Online no formal request has been made."

"Formal Request."  Make what you will of that.

What I make of it is exactly what is says really, they have not at this stage formally asked for any money.

  Why the UK media jumped the gin confirmed they had is the interesting thing to me.

News Stories make money.  Nothing interesting about that.

Really?  Making money is a moot point, l'm sure everyone knows that.
    The UK Media are usually kept well versed or 'in the loop' by the McCann's spokesman Clarence. So this time he either told them porkies, or they didn't consult him for some reason. Maybe he isn't 'in the loop' anymore with the Met. ....so it is interesting IMO.
