foxy lady Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) A quote from the article: "DS Fenwick and up to nine other members of the “Operation Ben” team then came together around 8pm on Tuesday at a local family pizzeria to down more beer and wine. The restaurant owner said the team downed 17 pints of beer as well as several glasses of wine before paying their 67 Euro bill." So thats what, just over 2 pints of lager each and maybe 2 glasses of wine each. Hardly a booze-up, is it? You cant expect them to be over there working 24 hours a day, there are two sides to every story and nobody knows who paid for the alcohol (them or the expenses account). Wow that's £5.27 apiece split between food and drink in a restauant. Some booze up. I'm surprised they sell pints of beer in Cos. This being the metric EU and all that. I think what they meant to print was that 10 people between them had 17 glasses of beer and 3 glasses of wine. 2 rounds of drinks amounting to a total of £52.70.

*_ash_* Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 What a non-story by the Sun again. I'm glad it's blown up in their faces because no one has fallen for it. I was listening to the news today half expecting Andy Burnham to put in his 2p worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bought it before? I can not honestly remember any time I have ever bought a copy. I've obviously read it though. Newspapers used to be in canteens/kitchens in places I've worked in the past.

Bargepole23 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 It is sad, there are hundreds of people go missing every year, and it would not be practical to spend millions on each one. But they're not all in Kos. What amazes me about this is after Hillsborough, Orgreave, the Rotherham scandal and how they informed the media about the search at Cliff Richards property, they still can't show a bit of common sense and keep a low profile. Two senior officers are reportedly out there one of who has been recalled and an internal inquiry will just cover up the whole story. There are plenty of equally deserving missing people cases that receive nowhere near the publicity, and police money/time, that this single case receives. I dare say there many are equally deserving missing persons cases which receive no time or money whatsoever. Is that because they aren't in as an exciting location?
