Yes it is the same story as the one in September 2015, which means in fact the six months was up now at end of March!!!  Even the headline and the title were the same.  So something is going on imo.............. wait for it.......!!!

Have a look at this thread from last September and the front page of the Express!

Looks like the McCanns are laying the groundwork for "the police couldn't find Maddie or her abductor so they're blaming us to save face" ...again.

My theory - the Sunday Express were just stuck for a front page story so they recycled their last one on Maddie.

The media recycles stuff all the time and its cheap; just tell the office intern to change dates and a few phrases. Add in a couple of cringe making sentences like Kate has now faced x years y months and z days without her beloved daughter.

Theresa May grants Scotland Yard another £95k to help find Madeleine McCann

As the Maddie McCann investigation - which has failed to dig up any new clues - was set to wrap up, the Home Secretary has come to the rescue

PA Home Secretary Theresa May, who is facing mounting questions over her response to the disappearance of a suspected terrorist sympathiser who slipped out of the country to become an Isis poster boyHome Secretary Theresa May has granted extra money to the search

Police hunting for Madeleine McCann have been given six months to find her offering fresh hope to her parents as they face the ninth anniversary of their daughter’s disappearance.

Home Secretary Theresa May has granted Scotland Yard extra funds of nearly £95,000 to carry on the search amid Kate and Gerry’s fears that the investigation would be shelved this month.

Maddie’s gran Susan Healy said the Met Police’s renewed commitment would give the family a boost. She said: “This is good news and they must think it is worth continuing.”

Susan from Liverpool - Kate’s mum - added: “We are very grateful for that.”

Former GP Kate recently told of her hope that Maddie, who would now be aged 12 nearly 13, could still be alive and vowed: “We will never give up.”

Kate, 48, and heart doctor husband Gerry, 47, had understood the inquiry codenamed Operation Grange would be wound up this week to coincide with the end of the financial year.

But new funds totalling £94,592 have been allocated until early October - a fraction on previous years. When the money runs out the Yard will then be poised to ditch the five-year £12 million inquiry which has yet to unearth any new clues.

The number of officers working on the case, cut from 30 at its peak to just four last autumn, will remain the same.

A Scotland Yard spokesperson said yesterday: “The inquiry has not reached a conclusion. There are still focused lines of investigation to be pursued.

There are no immediate plans to reduce office numbers further at this time.”

Detective Chief Inspector Nicola Wall leads the small team and has access to other detectives within the Homicide and Major Command if required.

A Home Office spokesperson added: “Following a request from the Metropolitan Police Service, we have agreed to provide nearly £95,000 of further funding for Operation Grange.

“The funding reflects the reduced scale of the investigation, which was announced by the force last year.” The spokesperson said the it covered the first half of the 2016-17 financial year.

Three-year-old Maddie disappeared from holiday apartment in Portugal’s Praia da Luz in May 2007 while her parents were dining nearby with pals.

When Operation Grange is finally closed and if Maddie is still missing Kate and Gerry from Rothley, Leics, will pay for their own team of private eyes to continue looking.

Family spokesman Clarence Mitchell said yesterday: “Should the need arise for a private investigation to be resumed, they have made sure they have enough money left in the Madeleine Fund.”

He said Kate and Gerry would have been made aware the inquiry is continuing but refused to discuss it because “it is a police matter.”

Should the search for Maddie still be funded by the public purse?

Met ready to throw in the towel as Maddie inquiry “appears to have gone stone cold”

SIX Months to find Maddie - Sunday Express 3.4.16 Sites_10


The Algarve - and particularly the seaside village of Praia da Luz - can stop worrying that Scotland Yard might appear back on the ground just as the season gets going to continue the search for Madeleine McCann.

After numerous high-profile visits and almost £12 million spent by the Home Office-led Operation Grange investigation over the last five years, funding has reached tipping point.

Less than £95,000 has been allocated this year - which the Sunday Express explains “will just about cover” wages of the four detectives left on the team for the next six months, and “leaves little left for flights to Portugal or paying for expensive forensic work”.

“Despite all the millions spent and the many trips to Portugal by the Yard, no one has been brought to book and it would appear the trail has gone stone cold”, adds sister paper the Express - stressing that although it was “widely reported” when Grange was in full swing that officers were working on a theory that Madeleine was “abducted during a burglary that went wrong” officers have been “unable to substantiate this line of inquiry with a view to bringing any charges”.

Indeed, police are no nearer knowing what happened to Madeleine almost nine years ago, whether she is alive or dead, and if the former, “where she is now” - though the Express story suggests the Yard has a “much clearer picture” of the events leading up to what detectives still refer to as “Madeleine’s abduction”.

For a holiday resort that lives in dread of the Met returning in force just as the sun comes out, the story could not have been better news.

“The way the village has been ‘hounded’ over the years - labelled as place full of child molesterers, homosexuals, burglars and Eastern European child-snatchers could not have been further from the truth””, said long-term resident Nana Van der Velden who became something of a celebrity in 2014 when she held up a protest banner in front of television cameras with the words: “Dig up the Lies, not Luz”.

But the Express article suggests the news “exposes worrying fallibility in what was once seen as the world’s best police force”.

The “impatient Portuguese media” is almost certain to “demand” that the substance of Grange is now brought into the public domain, adds the paper - and “with all that information available”, Madeleine’s parents Kate and Gerry will “have a considerable dossier at their disposal to present to any new private investigators they may wish to hire”.

But the Express concludes: “Sadly, the likelihood of discovering the fate of Madeleine before what would have been her 13th birthday next month, looks as distant as ever”.

Yes - Cheers, H.

I thought I included it but obviously not.

Might as well add the Star's version for good measure.

Any one know where to find this alleged statement?


The Met has released a statement which read: "A team of four officers continue to work solely on the Operation Grange investigation. These officers are funded by the Home Office. There are no immediate plans to reduce officer numbers further at this time.

"The enquiry has not reached a conclusion, there are still focused lines of investigation to be pursued.

"The officers will continue to be overseen by Detective Chief Inspector Nicola Wall, the current senior investigating officer, and the team sits within an existing major investigation unit on the Homicide and Major Crime Command.

"This provides the team with access to additional officers within that unit should the investigation require support for operational activity."

Yes but I'm not sure she's right that detectives still refer to it as an abduction.

From the Met press release linked to by Andrew above (my emphasis):
The Met wrote:This work has enabled us to better understand events in Praia da Luz the night Madeleine McCann went missing and ensure every possible measure is being taken to find out what happened to her

Will ask the same question here as it's the more appropriate thread for it.

Apart from the usual guff (Tracey K) in the same old papers, then has it been confirmed and verified anywhere that there has been a 6 month extension and a further £95k allocated by Theresa May......?

Also has this 'story' been covered on the TV news here (UK) at all does anyone know..? (rarely watch the news myself).

Found this from an American channel earlier though.
