Sometimes, it’s so difficult to know who to believe. The Met Office – packed with experts who understand science and data, and who have issued a red alert, or Dominic Raab, a twitching marionette made of elbow skin and broken toilet seats, telling us to just enjoy the sunshine.

Dear @Conservatives
Could I possibly hire one of your MPs for a few hours

If you're struggling to sleep in this heatwave then I have a tip for you that never fails. Take a medium-sized towel. Put it in the freezer for an hour. Take the towel out of the freezer and then you, and the towel, move to Belfast.

In this hot weather, it’s well worth checking in on elderly neighbours. I checked in on mine and asked her if she needed anything from the supermarket. She said bread, milk and eggs. I said well, there’s no point both of us going and gave her my shopping list, too.

Much warmer countries than the UK issue severe health warnings when temperatures hit 40 degrees.
The ‘it’s just summer’ brigade are the same people who claimed Covid was ‘just a bad cold’.
In short: stupid people.

I reckon if enough of us stand on the White Cliffs tonight with a load of fans we can blow the heatwave back to Continental Europe.

The temperature over the next two days may feel tough, but just think of the pleasure you’ll reap in the year 2068, when people are moaning it’s about to hit 65°c above ground, and you can roll out the line that they’re worrying over nothing, as we had a long hot summer in 2022.

BONUS – a tip.
Sticking one foot out from under the comforter drops the room temperature 5°.
