Met given 6 months and £2 million more to find Maddie. Is this the end?

[Mr Gray]

Why would the Met get £2m more if they had not made any progress, particularly with all the tabloid discontent about the amount spent so far?

with money so tight the investigation must be making progress to warrant a further 2 million

................and when it gets wound up with nothing to show, will Cameron or SY apologize for wasting tax payers money on a wild goose chase ?

The money would have been better spent for example, on medical research.

[stephen25000]

Actually, it would be interesting to see where and what all this diverted money from the tax payer has been spent on.

When did it become "wasting taxpayers money on a wild goose chase" to carry out an investigation into the case of a British child missing abroad?

**Snip
Official figures show that the eight-month military intervention unleashed by David Cameron in support of rebels fighting Colonel Gadaffi’s regime cost £320 million. But efforts to stabilise the country following Gaddafi’s death and the collapse of his government have amounted to just £25m, which has failed to prevent Libya from sliding into chaos as feuding militias battle for control.

Do you naively suppose that money taken from looking for Madeleine McCann will find its way into medical research??

I was waiting for something along those lines.

What happened in Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and elsewhere, lies in the hand of the western leaders who thought they knew better, didn't plan for the aftermath of their actions, and have ended up causing misery to millions. We now see the results of their arrogant stupidity.

As to medical research, rather more valuable would you say, than spending money on the case of a girl who disappeared without trace, and in the view of the vast majority of people is already dead.

It is taxpayers money nonetheless ... badly spent at the time and with the repercussions reverberating now and for some time to come.

The money being spent on the search for Madeleine McCann is a drop in the ocean by comparison.

No kidding.

So answer this one.

Which is more worthwhile ?

Medical Research or this case ?

Are you suggesting that the money for Madeleine McCann's case is being diverted from medical research? 

If you have proof of that please post it to inform us all.

That's not what I said.

Now which is more valuable, medical research or investigation of this case ?

[Eleanor]

If this investigation is in any way going to aid the prevention of this happening again then it will be money well spent.
There are s..m bags who think that stealing children is easy money.

As for 30 Countries, I have long suspected that Madeleine is far away from Portugal and could be difficult to recover.

[Eleanor]

That's not what I said.

Now which is more valuable, medical research or investigation of this case ?

They both have their own worth.  Neither one or the other is more important.  Although at this point in time the search for a missing child is more important.
