A 44-year-old Austrian woman posted a video of the moment a small plane flew through her glider. The woman was left spiralling out of control but survived after deploying her reserve parachute. 🔗 trib.al/umAch31

I’m starting to think that I’m the only right-winger on this platform who believes that climate change is a real phenomenon. Not saying it hasn’t been exaggerated in the media, but I just don’t see how you can wholesale reject it.
RS Archer@archer_rs

Apparently climate change is a myth.

@TherealRichieC @GBNEWS Between this and lowering the cash isa to 12k a year, she's basically trying to funnel all of the money into companies and shareholders.

@NoodleMC2 @GBNEWS Yeah right, tell that to people on the cusp of retirement who don’t want to risk a 40% drawdown in the next financial crisis. I hold 60% of my money in MMF in my S&S ISA and now will need to transfer that money back into cash ISAs from which some of it originally came.

@NoodleMC2 @GBNEWS If you pump all of your free cash into stocks without looking then you shouldn't be buying stocks in the first place

@GBNEWS If your "investments" are just a pile of cash sitting in an SHARES ISA, then frankly the money should confiscated for your own good. Buy some N&SI bonds if that's your idea of an investment. That being said, I doubt this will happen.

So, jokes aside, to understand why the heat is worse in the UK than say Arizona for example, the answer is quite long... First it's the Humidity, it's far higher here. The UK's island location and prevailing south-westerly winds bring moist sea air, so heatwaves are often humid rather than dry. In contrast, many of the hottest US states (e.g., Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico) have dry desert heat where sweat evaporates quickly, so you actually feel cooler despite higher temperatures. Even humid US regions (like the Southeast) usually have widespread air conditioning to offset it. Second, the buildings and Infrastructure that we have all are designed to Trap Heat, not Release It. UK homes are built for cold, damp winters: thick brick/stone walls, heavy insulation, small windows, and designs that retain warmth. During a heatwave, they turn into ovens, solar gain through windows builds up, and there is poor ventilation or passive cooling features like overhangs, shutters, or light-coloured roofs. Plus, poor air conditioning: Only about 5% of UK homes have AC (vs. ~90% in the US). It's not standard because it's rarely needed most of the year, but during spikes it's a nightmare. Also, retrofitting is expensive and tricky in old terraced houses or listed buildings. This extended to public transport, schools, offices, and even hospitals as they often lack cooling. Finally, most importantly, we have zero acclimatisation. Meaning it's just as hot at night as it is during the day. Britons aren't physiologically or culturally used to sustained heat. We're properly white! So, a sudden jump from typical UK summer temps feels extreme, and the body struggles more without gradual adaptation. Heatwaves often bring "tropical nights" (temps staying above 20 °C), so homes don't cool down overnight. You can't sleep, recover, or anything which just compounds fatigue, dehydration, etc. Drier US heat often cools significantly at night. That is all topped up with the fact that we have longer summer daylight at the UK's higher latitude meaning more hours of solar heating. Hope this long explanation that no one wanted clears this right up...

@RVal1995 @Cyn1calCrusader I'm impressed with the level of engagement you've got from what is perhaps the most obvious troll I've seen in the last 30 years.

@JeremyVineOn5 You'd be swapping a pound for a whole lot more destruction than 1 euro could ever bring.

Would you swap the pound for the Euro in order to rejoin the EU? It's a condition demanded by an EU chief after Labour challengers Wes Streeting and Andy Burnham put a return to the bloc back on the agenda. Is scrapping sterling a price worth paying?
