What's wrong with this picture?

Hands up (no pun intended) if you know who Margaret Hill is?? Come on now, someone must know, no conferring. OK..we'll come back to that. Here's an easier one, who knows who Madeleine McCann is? Yes indeedy-do, Madeleine McCann was the wee three-year old girl who was apparently abducted from her holiday apartment when she was left on her own by her parents who wanted to go out on the piss despite the availability of a babysitting and creche service. Her parents; both Doctors, white, Scottish, affluent were able to command two million hours of TV news coverage and insist the whole world drop what they were doing and go out and search for their child who was missing because of their own mind numbing irresponsibility.

Now then, Margaret Hill is another three-year-old British girl, also abducted, but this time not because her parents were out drinking Sambuca from the bottle, but because a Nigerian gang armed with AK-47's and pointed sticks removed her. Now, if the McCann "abduction," which was a consequence of uber-shit parenting, can command such huge media coverage, why hasn't this case? A case which, it seems to me, is so much more horrific!

I'll give you a clue. A controversial, somewhat cynical clue, but a clue nonetheless:

This is her mother:






















Might it be that no one gives a hoot about this particular kidnapping, because Margaret Hill is half Nigerian and it happened in Nigeria, where that sort of thing happens all the time and where the people aren't really people are they, they're more sort of animal types and so it's not as bad. Where as angelic Madeleine was nabbed from a Portuguese Butlins, where nice folk, (like Doctors) go on holiday and so it's more nasty innit.

100% agree. The Mccans chose to leave her alone. It is not fact yet she was even kidnapped. I feel so sorry for the Hill family and their daughter. Hope and pray both these children are returned safely to their parents. However the Mccanns should be looked into.
Great blog

The media only cares when blonde girls get abducted. That's why I bleached my hair, for my own protection in case I go missing. And for fame from the media coverage. There's no such thing as bad publicity!
