    If one doesn't have so much as a vestigial understanding of the issues relating to climate change then yes; yes, it is

    Temperatures will drop to lows of 3C (37F) in the daytime and will plummet to minus 3C (27F) or less in northern parts of the UK at night.



    OMG! -3C in December in very northern parts of the UK at night! That's like when the sun is somewhere else isn't it?

    Can humans survive such plummeting temps?

    This is the final nail in the climate change coffin then is it?

    Tower Bridge's profile is one of the planet's iconic images. There are probably over a milliard people who could immediately name it for what it is. For them to have got it wrong is mind-numbingly strange.

    I can only assume the newspaper in question is full of filthy foreigners who should all be sent home at once.

    Wasn't there something on the news saying next year was going to be the hottest on record (i.e. in the last 150 years or some such slightly misleading amount)? Mind you, we're still in an ice age compared to most of earth's history.
