1. Podesta efits have been used in media to discredit researchers and pushed by probable shills
2. Highly improbable that McCann case unrelated to elite pedo trafficking given the well-known connections between:

Sexually deviant Freud family (Sig + Lucian + Clement) includes Matthew Freud who did PR for the McCanns and claimed it a mere coincidence that Clement had met the McCanns and lived near their hotel.

Matthew Freuds wife at the time was Rupert Murdoch's daughter and what led me down this hole was the fact that another NewsCorp entity, Sky, doxxed a McCann-critic who was then suicided.

So I recalled the phone hacking scandal and realized I never heard of any resulting blackmail cases (not tjay I followed the case much) and I learned of an elite clique called the "Chipping Norton set" who live near each other and like parties:

What Rebekah and Cameron talked about most of all -- and I'm a trained journalist so I understand the need to get things right -- is sausage rolls.

We were planning a big walk with all our kids over Christmas and thought it might be a good idea to build a fire in my woods and stop off for a picnic. Rebekah was worried about what we'd eat. Cameron thought sausage rolls would be nice.

One member of this group is telecom magnate sir Charles Dunstone, Clinton donor of 250-500k class (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/projects/clinton-donors/page/5)) , among whose charities is an ocean-related group who awarded John Podesta for his work with Obama. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/22880

I'm sick of typing on a phone (I'd have put more links if not) but I need Brits to pursue this further, as it shows a potential but unclear link
