Why is it that the Mirror particularly, continue every so often, publish stories about another person claiming they could be Ben Needham? Just appalling.

When South Yorkshire police concluded after digging on Kos, that Ben in their ‘professional opinion’ most likely died as a result of an accident with a digger truck on the day he was last seen. Ben’s Mother then stated on UK TV Loose Woman, she believed what South Yorkshire police believed. Her criticism towards the family of Dino who was driving the vehicle involved was outrageous.

Then years later his Mother starts believing her Son is still alive. Then his Mother puts up a website.

I suppose soon on yet another quiet news day, we will get another person come forward and say they think they are Madeleine McCann.

Oh by the way, talking of Madeleine McCann, it is that time of year again when the Metropolitan Police Service will most likely be asking the HomeOffice for yet more money, for Operation Grange.

THE most likely place where Ben was buried all these years ago, I gave in a story to the Sun newspaper in 2025. They wrote the story up, they sent a photographer to my home. They then spoke to Ben’s Mother and the story was never published.

Ground penetrating radar GPR is required to search the most obvious site, which South Yorkshire police failed to do, when they excavated on Kos Island in October 2016.
