Supreme Court rules against the McCanns in damages case.

Amaral's book will never be published in Angleterre, because it is so full of Libel.

Personally, I don't care.  People aren't half daft.

And now Portugal is going to have to live with this. It will not end well.

No, I don't think it will
A lot of tiny tears to be shed before this is finally  put to bed.

Whatever helps you get through the day.

I suspect that my day is so much better than yours.  I don't have a problem with my day, but I think you might.

You think wrong. For me every day is a doddle.

same   the mcanns  problems dont affect me in the slightest they brought them on themselves

[Mr Gray]

out of adversity......I think the mccanns will come back stronger...sometimes it takes a kick in the teeth to give you the energy and desire to carry on...anyone who writes off the mcCanns is a fool imo...they will continue the search for their daughter and I wish them the best of luck

[G-Unit]

So just to clarify the fund is not liable for any costs but under the terms could pay the costs if the directors chooses

The question then arising is if the directors are acting in the company's best interest financially, which is one of their duties. If paying the costs of two of the director's litigation bankrupts the company that is not in the company's best interest, is it?

Can a bankrupt be a company director?

I don't believe so.

Well said Davel,
 I too wish them the best of luck. I'm sure once they have recovered from this unjust decision they will continue with the search for their much loved daughter. I wish them good health, strength and much support from their friends and family.

I do actually understand this particulier facet of Portuguese Law, although not with any certainty, probably because it is only an interpretation.  But at least I can see how it came about.

I will remain entirely on the side of The McCanns, and continue to hope that Madeleine will be found alive and unharmed, within the bounds of what is possible.

There is nothing that nasty people can say to me that will lead me to believe otherwise.

When did they last search for Madeleine ?

[stephen25000]

yes they can

You can dream, but then reality bites, as it has this week.

[stephen25000]

A pertinent question, as we are constantly told the McCann's search for jet, but there is scant evidence of that.

They were preoccupied with going after Amaral, and look how that has turned out.

Meanwhile ,  no trace of Madeleine and OG will be shelved as I predicted without finding a thing.

Yes. But see G-Unit's earlier post.
As the Sun went off piste a bit yesterday I would have a bit of the six to fours on them snooping in that area to see if there is a good front pager for them to sell more copy. One way or another the McCann name still seems to sell copy.
