Wear a yellow ribbon for Maddie

THE Sun today urges Britain to show support for the anguished family of snatched tot Madeleine McCann - by wearing yellow clothing in her honour.

We want our army of readers to show they are shoulder-to-shoulder with Kate and Gerry McCann during the agonising wait for news of their missing four-year-old.

Maddie’s kidnap while on holiday in Portugal’s Algarve more than a week ago has touched every parent’s heart.

TV viewers have been moved to tears by the dignified courage of her desperate parents — Scots-born cardiologist Gerry and GP Kate, both 38.

Now, on Maddie’s fourth birthday, we are asking every Sun reader in Britain to don a yellow ribbon — or items of yellow clothing — in a symbol of solidarity with the family’s unimaginable nightmare
