Just flicked to this. I could see plenty of pictures of houses being burnt to the ground, but nobody fighting the fires. Doesn't look good at all.

wild fires everywhere
homes been destroyed
railway line rails bending out of shape
hospital buildings and others to warm to work in safely
2.5 million people needing medical help for heat releated problems this summer

Grass doesn’t automatically combust.

France have arrested over 400 people for arson.

Figures from french government.

We know what the climate change loony lefties activists are doing instead of chaining themselves to rails and chucking paint over business windows, anyway.

FIRE chiefs are probing whether A-level students celebrating their results by burning notepads may have sparked a huge wildfire that has left 25 in hospital.

A total of 19 homes were completely destroyed and 18 others damaged as families forced to evacuate as the fire spread across Stourbridge, West Midlands, yesterday afternoon.



A-level students across the country had been collecting their final grades – with many celebrating throughout the day.

However, fire chiefs are now reportedly investigating whether teenagers burning notepads and celebrating with barbecues may have been behind the blaze.

if you think wind blowing in hot ashes ,landing on a back garden and starting an unstoppable fire within the blink of an eye,as shown by doorbell footage,  is nothing to do with 36 degree temp brought on by climate change,your a moron and other than something similar happening to you,theres no helping you

A lot of arson about, very odd. One around York a few weeks ago was started by two women.

It's not worth trying to debate the climate change deniers.

That said there will plenty of loons who think it's a game to set fires. Moronic wouldn't cover it. It's a shame we haven't got enough prisons them. I wouldn't be shedding tears if they got 20 years. It appears the Stoke and Kings Norton fires were arson related.

I never see any, they must be rather thin on the ground.
I suspect you are looking for an argument, not a debate.

It is estimated that the UK contributes 0.81% of the worlds carbon emissions, so we have little effect on global levels.

This is precisely why I turned off the Government phone alert. An unelected self-publicist like Andy Binface would never be able to resist misusing it.

other than the law taking it,s course who/why the fires started is irrelevant  to that video footage of that garden setting a blaze in a nano second as though the garden and house were doused in petrol

Sunshine doesn’t start fires..fact,if that was the case there wouldn’t be any buildings on earth….

Fires start due to thickos intentionally or accidentally…..mainly thickets tbh
