Despite no obvious progress since then, earlier this year the head of Scotland Yard's murder squad, Detective Chief Superintendent Mick Duthie, remained optimistic.

He said: "There is ongoing work. There is always a possibility that we will find Madeleine and we hope that we will find her alive."

My bold.

The 'outstanding work' is what's left when you exhaust every single other option put forward.

The 'outstanding work' is the glaringly obvious..........

Or at least it should be.

Yeah just waiting on the supreme court.

Just about a full house now....

This won't be good news for the McCanns. I've felt for a long time that their hopes were that the investigation would quietly end as unresolved and that would be it, leaving them to prattle on about putting funds into their own search again.

This, I think, will make them very nervous.

I read somewhere earlier but can't find it again that some cop was justifying the McCann case costs by explaining that London's murder figures were down on previous records so they were able to redeploy the 30 odd officers to the case without affecting policing of the city.
Two things here; The officers reassigned were clearly homicide dectectives so why would the Met not use officers from other sectors if they truly believed in an abduction? At any time the crime figures could rise again meaning a change of staff mid investigation.
Or is this, clearly nonsensical piece of information, just another way of leaking where the Met are going with the inquiry? Quietly preparing the public for someone being charged with murder. Oh how I would love to think so, but I fear it is just another rubbish excuse to justify the waste of money.

Would they be even asking for more money if they were deliberately trying to whitewash the whole thing?

The word 'abduction' has certainly been abducted these days. No mention of it in any of those articles today. Nor has it been mentioned for some time now from what I recall.

The only people that parrot that word are the McCanns themselves.

Well exactly, how on earth can they be covering up or whitewashing by wanting to continue ? They are continually putting themselves forward for more and more scrutiny by keeping the investigation going, more FOI, more journalists asking questions............ funny way of going about a whitewash or cover up wouldn't you say.

ITV a bit late with it.....

Nothing from the BBC or SKY from what I can see.

This article is from a few days ago but will stick it up here:
