What load of sensationalist bollox.
It will be hot for a few days, you'd be whining if it was cold. Yes sleeping at night is uncomfortable, hardly the end of the world.
Grow up and get over it FFS ::)
;D ;D
Folk are not very sensible when it comes to hot weather ..... get pissed .... go for a swim in deep water ..... whatever seems like a daft idea to try .... !!!!
Weather forecasting is now openly used as a means of political manipulation.

I would just call it public information. No difference from winter snow storm warnings, and traffic warnings at St Andrews at the moment.
Public info is fine, but everything is now framed using the language of extremes and disaster you used to only hear from the nut-job climate fanatics or totalitarian states. It is now mainstream. It is a very cynical way to exploit people's fears and doubts to further a political agenda and manipulate our behaviour.
The news now makes out that 50% of the older population are going to die if the temperature exceeded 26 ::)
Your spot on Fred. The mainstream media seem to be all fear mongering constantly , everything is extreme! Sick of it all. Was listening to the radio yesterday when the dj started advising how to cope, reminding us we should wear loose othing stay hydrated etc. Just play some bloody songs

And the surviving 50% will die next winter because woke "green" energy policy and taxes mean they can't afford to put the heating on.
