This is truly terrifying, and is what happened in many underground garages in Valencia. The flooding arrived unbelievably quickly! 💔

@MrMatthewTodd It is not random. It is a known meterological event here in Spain. But this one was worse and hit areas where the infrastructure was insufficient to cope with the volume of water. The next one, or the next one after that, will be worse still.

What happened in Valencia is not going to wake us up, is it. Scientists say it was powered by climate change. Radio presenters and commentators are ignoring that and lying to themselves that it's just a random event. Like the recent flooding in France, the insane flooding in Poland a month ago, the devastation of North Carolina a few weeks back, the record hot summer globally, the record hot year globally etc. We simply refuse to even seriously face climate change let alone act.

@BremainInSpain @ZoeJardiniere Agreed, but it is a pity that it is so difficult to obtain a visa allowing work, and that self-employment is so expensive. There is little possibility for small-scale enterprises eg hobbyists. Still a better life than in the UK though!

@ZoeJardiniere As migrants in Spain we are very lucky. Spain’s PM and the government have always used welcoming, supportive language towards us. Particularly after the Brexit referendum. So different to what fellow migrants in the UK have faced. Language really matters.

"We Spaniards are the children of migrants. We are not going to be the parents of xenophobia." Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez continues to school Europe's so-called centrist leaders in what kind of rhetoric a is needed to stand up to the far right.

Flooding is hitting >every continent in the world< hard. Can this be the moment, the majority gets it: If we don’t deal with this thing, it’s going to be the end of us. #ClimateBreakdown #Helene If YOU get it now, and want to be part of this huge wake-up call, please RT. Thanks!

🧵 I've put together this thread to show just how much flooding has happened around the world, and this is only for the month of September—and it's not even over yet! Please share this because I don't think the message is getting out there. Türkiye... x.com/volcaholic1/st…

If you could guess the main thing that causes Europeans to be in better shape/healthier than Americans… What would it be?

@StanCollymore Cycling is odd to watch until you understand the team strategies and tactics, then it can be absorbing. I usually limit myself to watching the last 30km of a stage otherwise it is too much!

Really strange, I don't watch any other sport other than football, but I'll go out of my way to watch the Tour de France on telly 🤔 No idea why, don't even like cycling! Anyone else have a random sport they'll watch that they normally wouldn't?

@BylineTimes Outrageous. They left the country. They don’t pay taxes. Yet they vote. Tory trickery is unending.

Spain this summer? Staying with family/friends? You'll need a Carta de Invitación (takes several weeks and costs £70+). Financial resources: each UK visitor needs access to at least £862. Not “new rules”: existing requirements that we asked to apply to us. independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…
