The political establishment is bracing for seismic ripples. The Metropolitan Police have confirmed they are reviewing the 1998 disappearance of Nancy Guthrie. The catalyst?

The PM's spokesperson offered only a terse 'we have full confidence in the police.' But off the record? Panic.
The Guthrie family have waited 26 years. They may not wait much longer. The wheels of justice, long rusted, are turning again.
