Sorry Brietta, that won't wash either.
I read the article, and merely posting those quotes won't change the fact the SY team have found nothing.
Your 'blue' quotes are a standard tactic in trying to transfer blame to another party, i.e. the PJ.
The bottom line remains, SY have found nothing.
P.S. Would any UK Police force allow one from another country to take over an investigation in the UK, and would the government allow it to happen ?
Answers on a postcard.......
Actually we have no idea at all exactly what stage SY are at in the investigation because they aren’t going to tell us chapter and verse - nor should they.
I find what Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe has said very encouraging indeed:
“The investigation is still ongoing and we will not be reducing the team.” sounds very much to me that all options remain open and will be investigated.
Confirmation that no brick wall has been met here requiring a reduction in the team; remember, all of this has to be justified to the Home Secretary who is not going to throw good money after bad in the run up to an election.
I am delighted that he feels confident enough to go on record with the statement that
“A reasonable amount of progress has been made.” The “blue quote” to which you refer, was emphasis of that part of the statement you missed out, whether that was because it does not fit your narrative is anyone’s guess; but it was an important omission.
Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe is merely stating the obvious - the lack of joint working is hampering the investigation - one can only hope it is an impediment which can be rectified sooner rather than later.
