@DaveThroup You are rather gullible aren't you, how far do records go back, 4.5 billion years? Thought not.

There we have it!
Previous May temperature record beaten by a full 2°C. In a long term national weather record that is a ridiculous amount.
Previous record exceeded at at least 13 other locations. Climate deniers obsessed with airfield weather stations will be disappointed.

@jonburkeUK Those records go back 4.5 billion years do they?

That was yesterday, Tony.
Temperatures have just exceeded the all-time May and Spring record - from the longest continuous temperature record in the world - by a full 2C.
Care to comment?

"Hottest May day for nearly 80 years", screams The Guardian. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m… In other words, 80 years ago it was even hotter. In other words, the climate is getting COOLER! All thanks to CO2, or so we're (without hard scientific evidence) told.

@ChrisDean534038 Are you incapable of reading a science book or watching a documentary? science.nasa.gov/climate-change…

Records are records because they are so extreme for the time of year.
When they are broken it’s usually by a fraction of a degree.
This could be broken by more then 2C!!
This is deeply concerning.
The planet we grew up on has changed.

Today will be the hottest day in May in the UK in our temperature records, with highs of 35 degrees Celsius expected📈 The current May record is 32.8 °C. Records are usually only broken by tenths of a degree - making this heatwave unprecedented for the time of year 🌡️

@cra46159 It would be classed as endangering and aircraft.

Been told to wear a grey suit for a wedding…. Does the middle one look grey to you?

@Petagna Doesn't summer begin on June 1st so it's only a week away.
English
These temperatures are truly staggering for 10.20 in the morning .. even if it were the height of summer .. and yet it's still Spring!
Average daytime highs in the south are currently around 16 to 18 Celsius
At 27 degrees (just into the low 80s F) we're already 10C above this!

£400,000 embezzled from the SNP by Peter Murrell, but where did it all go? Previous reporting pointed to:
Campervan: £124,550 of party funds, said to be for Murrell’s personal use.
Jaguar I-PACE: £57,500 of SNP money towards an £81,000 car.
Volkswagen Golf: £16,489 towards a £33,000 car.
Also, jewellery, cosmetics, designer and luxury goods, shoes, and a luxury pen (whatever that is).

@thecoastguy It's you, get an av receiver and appreciate the 5.1 soundtrack. Squeezing 5.1 into stereo is always going to sound awful.

I find the audio on new movies muffled and indistinct. Old movies are still fine. Is it just me?

@StephenMorganMP You can only measure accurate response times from a constant, every stat you brag about is based on a variable. Was every incident absolutely identical to 5 years ago, every journey, ailment, patient, journey, destination. No. Your figures are meaningless.
English
Under this Government we see the fastest ambulance response in five years - less than 29 mins for heart attacks and stroke. Lots done, lots more to do.
It was a privilege to go out with a local ambulance crew to see firsthand they work they do to keep our community fit and well.

@OperaSocialist If I ask an imported NHS worker to speak slowly or explain themselves better because I can't understand them have you got a problem with that?
English
The Farage and Tommy Robinson effect in practice:
The NHS staff at my local hospital are all amazing, kind, professional, compassionate and with the patience of a saint.
Many are immigrants or of a BAME background.
The overt racism from several patients was absolutely shocking.
Not just one incident but over the course of 3 days I witnessed 6 separate, hideous racist comments or abuse being hurled with a vitriol unseen in decades.
These twats are emboldened by Farage, Reform, Musk, Lowe, Tiny Tommy Ten Names and a media which gives their hideous views a platform.

@I_am_KenBarlow @asda A little tip, allow yourself to be overcharged then got to the Customer Service Counter and ask for a refund, you will be given a £2.00 Gift Card also by way of an apology.
English
BEWARE @ASDA are scamming.
Signs all over the store "20% off all George clothing". However they are charging full price at the tills.
Only if you notice and complain, do they then press a button which takes 20% off. It doesn't come off automatically.
ASDA are scamming.

@RealGeorgeFree I think that you've answered your own question there.

🇦🇺 Australia: ‘Palestinian’ Flotilla Activists Arrive at Sydney Airport, Allege Physical and Sexual Abuse by Israeli Authorities.
Why do these people always behave as if they’re mentally ill?

@paulcottam You are able to look back at the last 4.5 billion years that the planet has existed and draw that conclusion, I think that it is you that is not normal, you are quite exceptional.
English
@MarkCorbo4 I deny climate change, a few hundred years doesn't even qualify as a blink of the eye in the grand scheme of things. Since records began, who was keeping records 6 billion years ago?
English
No one denies climate change. It changes slowly. The majority deny that it's down to human activity. And those in the know deny it's due to C02. We're coming out of an ice age. I find the remarkable consistency in climate indicates a higher intelligence probably in control of it

@offgriddesigner @hammondweather Record heat? Did they have thermometers 6 billion years ago? Thought not.
English
These people are not meteorologists.
The modern breed of weather forecasters like @hammondweather are nothing more than sponsored scaremongers masquerading as experts.
Shameless.
English
@terrychristian How long has the planet existed? When was the thermometer invented? Since records began means fuck all.

But Dave down the pub who failed all the way through school - told me it was a hoax - he saw it on Facebook and Farage told him

Temperatures have peaked today at 30.5°C in Frittenden, Kent 🌡️ This marks the first time in 2026 that the UK has passed the 30°C threshold It is very rare for the UK to record 30°C in May, with the last time being over a decade ago on 25 May 2012
