So a couple of days ago its said OG is still receiving £300,000 funding,with one less officer  but yet a report a couple of days ago says that SY (The MET) once again shows failing's  including not logging 69,000 offences in a year, I suppose the ones left at OG have it easy what with Wolters having solved it.

I think its probably wrong to think of OG as part of the Met.
Yes, they are nominally responsible to a DCI who has a proper day job, but they are probably staffed by "Old Tricks" type officers who are well past their best days and the funding is ring-fenced from the Home Office.

I'd wager that a job on Operaton Grange is akin to winning the Postcode Lottery, notwithstanding having to open the door to a grinning mong in a red sweatshirt.
10.00am - saunter in, Pret coffee in hand, scratching ones arse with other
10.05 - 12.05 - Facebook / Instagram 'research'.
12.05 - 15.05 - Boozy lunch c/w surf and turf at The Old Shades
15.10 - 15.30 - lift receiver to check if phone actually works.
15.40 - Repair to Bassoon

Don't forget 'walking the dog'. They're bound to have one, even if just for  appearances sake.

I mean. what sort of 'Madeleine investigation' would it be without a dog ?

Good on the police for never giving up on Keith.

Over the moor, take me to the moor
Dig a shallow grave
And I'll lay me down

Over the moor, take me to the moor
Dig a shallow grave
And I'll lay me down

Lesley-Anne, with your pretty white beads
Oh John, you'll never be a man
And you'll never see your home again
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for

Edward, see those alluring lights?
Tonight will be your very last night
A woman said: "I know my son is dead"
"I'll never rest my hands on his sacred head"

Hindley wakes and Hindley says
Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, and says
"Oh, wherever he has gone, I have gone"

But fresh lilaced moorland fields
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death
Fresh lilaced moorland fields
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death

Hindley wakes and says
Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, and says
"Oh, whatever he has done, I have done"

But this is no easy ride
For a child cries

Oh, find me, find me, nothing more
We are on a sullen misty moor
We may be dead and we may be gone
But we will be, we will be, we will be, right by your side

Until the day you die
This is no easy ride
We will haunt you when you laugh
Yes, you could say we're a team
You might sleep
You might sleep
You might sleep
But you will never dream

Oh, you might sleep
But you will never dream
You might sleep
But you will never dream

Oh Manchester, so much to answer for
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for
Oh, find me, find me
Find me
I'll haunt you when you laugh
Oh, I'll haunt you when you laugh
You might sleep
But you will never dream

Oh
Oh, over the moors, I'm on the moor
Oh, over the moor
Oh, the child is on the moor
..........

15 years later and people still need to remind the rest of the world what perfect parents they are.  Yes, we get it and I expect the McCanns have got it by now too, but nothing like repeating the same old mantras over and over again until you're blue in the face.

How awful their own lives must be if the highlights are confined to abusing others.  FIFTEEN YEARS!! of pickling oneself in hatred.  Who does that?  If their behaviour wasn't so despicable one could almost feel sorry for them.
