….hmmmmm, I’m not really sure that would be a priority for me…I mean, I don’t know if any crime has been committed but I think the priority now is for Alex to settle and adjust to what’s going to all be strange and very unfamiliar in the extraordinary circumstances …the GM police are working with the French police …which has led to neighbours reporting that his grandfather is still alive…but hopefully they’ll be sensitive to him and take it quite slowly and when he’s ready…

Making a story out of nothing
He wasn’t held against his will

Yes,
but he has not done Proper Education.


Good job, he learnt Computer skills.

The family are obviously being paid by the Sun for stories at this point so it's probably all fiction now

He could had a full education and still be as thick as two planks

The whole story is a joke
He wasn’t being held captive, he was living with his mother

If the truth be told the uk police didn’t give this situation priority when it was first reported by his gran

Of Course
the Strange Political Freak Mother
took him to Spain,


Why should the Police look into a Mother
taking her own son. At that time?

police are now looking into it ....

He was 11 when his mother and Grandfather disappeared with him....they were not his guardians so obviously his mother had done something wrong to have had him taken away from her.
Any child between 11-15 would find it extremely hard to run away in a strange country...how do we know he was not threatened??? He travelled through the night for 3 days and rested during the day probably in fear of getting spotted and taken back :shrug:...it was only when he reached Toulouse that he felt safe to be seen...and how he came to be picked up.

If his mother was so bad then why did his grandmother allow him to go on holiday with her

He said he still loves his mother so hardly had a bad relationship with her.
