    To answer the “it’s summer!” brigade 40C is NOT normal for the UK 25C by night is NOT normal UK infrastructure’s not built for it Heatwaves are among the most dangerous of natural hazards Heat records are becoming more frequent 7 out of 10 hottest UK days have been since 2003

    More award winning research from the Daily Mail. There are only 12 (TWELVE) national presenters on the books now, 5 being part-time …covering ALL BBC outlets on TV/Radio/Online/Social 7 days a week, 365 days of the year. Careless research or agenda driven? 🤷🏼‍♂️
