I AM writing to agree with the letter in HAS by Bob Radcliffe concerning Madeleine McCann (HAS, May 3).
My wife and I have holidayed abroad and always taken our children with us no matter where we were going.
Our children were older then Madeleine.
There can be nothing worse than losing a child, especially your own but the root cause of all this is her parents.
Mr Radcliffe is right, if that had been anybody else, and not two high-profile doctors, there would be serious repercussions.
Social Services would have been climbing all over working class parents. Charges would surely have followed.
If her parents had not been who they are, do you think the media, TV stations and the like would have been remotely interested.
Name and address supplied.
