Even if I achieve the above its not the same as saying I think I could do better than the police as a whole. 

Of course it will be embarrassing for the MET if an armchair sleuth has cracked the case in less than a month at zero cost.   

Not sure what mortgage brokers have got to do with anything? 

Its a myth the police suffer more fatalities in the workplace than others but I thought you might trot that one out. See fatality figures produced by HSE.  Page 5, fig 5:

IMO you are the one who should be embarrassed making such a ridiculous claim

What have I claimed in the above post?

What have I claimed in the above post?

You have claimed to have solved the McCann case

You have claimed to have solved the McCann case

I think my post above incorporates the word 'if' on two occasions.  Even if I have solved the McCannn case I don't see why it be so outlandish given we almost have all the same info to work with that the police have given Portuguese law of placing it all in the public domain.

Not everything is in the public domain..
I think it's a ridiculous idea..

What's not in the public domain that's relevant?

Just repeating something is ridiculous doesn't make it so.  Please set out your reasons explaining why in your opinion it is not possible for an armchair sleuth to crack the case?

Catcha you later Davel.

What has the MET achieved under her stewardship deserving of a dame hood?  As you said they don't need to achieve or under achieve they simply receive a dame hood or knighthood as as part of the package.

I’m sure the Met must have achieved SOMETHING under her stewardship, but so what?

I agree Davel.

Holly's claim to have solved the case is ridiculous, especially since Amaral already solved it.

[Wonderfulspam]

At least she doesn’t have a conviction for violent assault, unlike “sir” Geoffrey Boycott l

Sir Geoffrey thoroughly deserves his knighthood for his services to cricket.

He is an absolute legend.

The greatest living Yorkshireman.

as Ive said before its possible for an armchair detective to have  a theory that fits ...that doesnt mean its true. There is no evidence in the public domain to enable anything to be proven with any real degree of certainty.

Yes, just  as the greatest dead Yorkshireman Jimmy Savile deserved one for his selfless charity work.

Yeah, so what?

No MM dead or alive.  No conviction(s)

No but she called it wrong over Jean Charles de Menezes resulting in the death of an innocent man.

Was she found guilty of any wrongdoing?
