Why has the village of Rothley got so many idiots?


Why has the village of Rothley got so many idiots?

"I think they (the Portugese police) didn't have any options so they took the easy option and accused them".

Doh!

I'm sure loads to Rothley residents have common sense but have been airbrushed out of public comment. Any of us with questions on this weird case have been sent to the gulag of public opinion. This has to be one of the weirdest episodes of our lifetime.
I've so many questions, not least, if it's possible for the people of Zimbabwe and Nigeria to regularly tell Gordon Brown to go to hell when he tries to meddle in their affairs, why on earth did the Portuguese authorities let Gordon Brown help this pair. I don't know what happened to the child and I'm not willing to speculate, but fact is, if you leave 3 kids under five on their own, you're charged with neglect and cruelty. And why the secrecy laws in Portugal? What a joke, as people can brief through spin doctors on the same case. In this country, the police aren't perfect, but they can start giving press conferences immediately, so it's impossible for anyone to manipulate info getting out to the public.
And I think if this happened in UK, the case would've been solved pronto.
Also, this isn't a class thing. Dr Shipman and several other doctors have been dealt with by the law.
This is just too odd for words.
Poor kid!
No use appealing to people's consciences as the people involved in this haven't any.
Perhaps we'd find out what happened in future under the 30 year rule.

Another mystery - if it's ok for media to accuse Prince Phillip of killing people who were obviously in a car crash, why aren't people allowed even to question people involved in this case?
How bizarre!

no reaction to the groundbreaking news of today mr hirst?

Is asking how many idiots Rothley has going to be your only contribution to this magnanimous day?

Will you be carrying on your campaign?

anonymous: Hardly groundbreaking. You obviously have not visited my Justice For Madeleine blog where I cover the story, and my forum Justice4Madeleine where it is also covered.

Do catch up!

Rothley is not a village.

The newly built Crescent where the McCann's recently bought into is part of Mount Sorrel.

Needless to say neither kate nor Gerry are locals and they were not known locally until 12 months ago.

It is ALL BULLSHIT.

Rothley is a village, but has grown too much over the years and joined up with mountsorrel. I was born in Rothley and like most of the people I grew up with could not afford to stay.

It used to be a brilliant community, but now is full of strangers. The McCann's are part of the newcomers who have the money to buy a house there. A house that was built on the lovely fields that saw a generation grow up.

Alot of the people who have moved into Rothley have more money than the majority of original villagers who had to move out. Having too much money to focus on can hinder family bonds and the natural instincts of parents. In the desire to acheive a different set of priorities ie earning MORE money and spending it on fancy holidays and posh resturants children can be pushed aside. Life was simpler and better for children when there was only money for the basic needs.

Thats probably why Rothleys full of idiots now as they earn too much money, more than they need for the simple life.
