Well done (McCanns)

[celtic]

if they had looked after their children properly in the first place then they had needn't have worried about what the papers would write about them.

Bollocks in my opinion. Another 500k to spend 'looking' for someone who quite clearly isnt going to be found.

nice timing tho. year anniversary coming up and all that. wp

Respect where it's due, Well done for getting the apology from the filth that is the tabloids. The money is only peanuts obviously as the papers made millions off the back of this but good for them that they had he balls to take on the ussually untouchable British "media" and won. Maybe if everybody started standing up to the tabloids the media would become half decent in the UK.

Well if the papers have highlighted that a couple of pseudo posh types are responsible for their daughter getting snatched because they failed to look after her properly then maybe they have done a good job and many kids in the future may be saved.

There is surely a MASSIVE difference between saying "I left my kid" and a newspaper claiming "YOU KILLED HER AND HID HER BODY!"?

Come on!..how can people not see that?

Exactly this is why the newspaper reports that criticised their actual actions didn't result in libel - only the cretins who just made stuff up without any evidence were sued.

I have nothing planned in April....so if I can scrounge up a result I might treat the Mrs to a weekend there...might just find myself in the vacinity of a poker room as well..accidentally. But will definitely be in London at some stage this year to play (If I don't make Vegas London will be in June/July)...Would be nice if there was a fessie at Equal Chance at some stage so I could go for a few days

And 3 hours to reply because I had to drive around for an hour and a half trying to find a decent curry place and failed..(I shit you not).
