    RE: So in the absence of the option they believe...........

    Just stretching the meaning of the option. In other words they don't believe the Police lied so vote for the other option as it kind of fits. It is only a poll on a football forum. I am just guessing of course as I haven't a clue who has voted, never mind why.

    By that logic it could also have gone the other way.

    If they're not pillocking then they believe its more likely that the McCanns did something pointless, stupid and dangerously provocative than that theincompetent Portuguese policewho've cocked the whole investigation up from the start are simply trying to pin it on someone to close the case.</p>

    Which is daft. Daft, daft, daft. Dafter than Daft Danny McDaft, winner of last month's daftness competition.</p>

    So we are back to the question of why bother doing a poll? If there is only one possible answer. Maybe it is the poll that is daft? Or just terribly written.

    Maybe it's one of those misunderstandings caused by predictive text.

    My mate tried to text his wife to say I'm going to be working till late so have dinner without me but it came out You ruined my life you fat, manipulative bitch.</p>

    There isn't &quot;only one possible answer,&quot; there's also the daft one. We'll get there.</p>

    RE: Bingo!

    My impression is that when you first did the poll it was a genuine question up until the point when the majority voted against your belief then you decided to play the pillocking card. And I don't believe that you only did the poll to see how many people would be daft, because that in itself would just be daft.

    My opinion is that the real reason is probably not encapsulated by either of the options.

    Thats all. My opinion, wont be changed.

    RE: I am amazed they havent brought the Met in,

    All the DNA tests are being done by UK forensic specialists in Birmingham, sniffer dogs were brought in from the UK (South Yorkshire). The UK police have had a fair amount of input into what's happened, have worked closely with the Portuguese police,and given the apparent nature of how and when the DNA was found im sure they will be in a strong position one way or the otherto vouch for the reliability of it and how it might have ended up where it did.</p>

    It was indeed a genuine question.....

    ....however i don't believe that many people would be stupid enough to believe the McCanns made it up, which is why I concluded that they must be pillocking. I'm running out of ways to explain something that should be quite simple to understand and I'm begining to think, especially as you seem to think it's possible to mistake anything for &quot;Confess and you'll only get two years&quot; that I'm not going to be able to dumb it down far enough for you.</p>

    You also seem to be labouring under the misconception that I'm trying to change your opinion when nothing could be further from the truth. I quite enjoy daftness.</p>

    Just how much involvement should a foreign police force have?

    What if scenario was reversed and this was a Portuguese couple in England - would the Portuguese police be allowed to investigate?

    RE: Curiouser and curiouser

    What is probably more crucial to the discovery of the DNA and whether it matches Madeleine is:</p>

    a) whereexactly it was found in the car</p>

    b) what form the DNA took</p>

    c) how much of it they found</p>

    </p>

    And I am saying that you can't possibly believe that people might just have a different opinion to you. You must be right, in your own mind. It must be the police who are lying. Read the thread, it seems that the majority of voters who have bothered to post believe that it is not the police who are lying. Dumbed down enough? As for why these people voted for the other option, I gave my reason for why I think that might be about an hour ago. But it was obviously filed in your 'wrong' compartment.

    Yes, and as with that case a lot of media speculation and second guessing took place which probably didn't do the case any real favours in believing the final outcome.</p>

    Not when the opinion is completely daft, no.....

    ...I don't believe it.</p>

    And your belief that people voted for the other option because the option they wanted (which is even dafter) is indeed filed in my &quot;wrong&quot; compartment. Because it's daft. Dumbed down enough yet?</p>

    The local police trying to fix it on the parents, because they are scared of what the case will do to tourism figures.

    RE: The involvement the British police have been allowed........

    That is true in certain areas of the investigation but since you nor anyone else is privy to all the nature of all the evidence collected and when it was collected, it's impossible to know what they have and how reliable it is. I'd be surprised if the only evidence the Portuguese police have in relation to their belief the McCann's were involved are some DNA results.</p>

    Given the UK police are responsibile for testing the forensic evidence i sure they will be the first to advise the Portuguese police on its reliability. And if, as some suspect, they are trying to either set the McCann's up or are botching the investigation I doubt the UK police will sit back and say nothing.</p>

    And absolutely nothing to do with a suspected murder case of a young girl?

    Oh! and I suppose you're going to blame BRITISH DNA experts, now trying to "fix it on the parents" too?
