I find and report the available facts. Those who are blinkered by their own preferences try to deny or manipulate those facts to fit their narrative. The facts are still the facts, and one of them is that the McCanns didn't ask for a UK investigation, they asked for a review.
Well I certainly haven't denied that they asked for a review. In fact earlier I asked:
"Thank you, so now you might like to give some thought as to why the McCanns were so desperate for a case review that they petitioned three home secretaries to re-open an investigation into the crimes you seem to think they themselves may have committed".
Where your blinkers are firmly in place is that you cannot see how utterly absurd it would be for any criminal to ask the British police to conduct a full and comprehensive review into all the evidence of the crimes they have allegedly committed. It's a ludicrous illogical fantasy which you are fully prepared to go along with it seems.
