The amount of coverage for this is staggering, the poor people up north affected for weeks without power etc from storm Arwen were just ignored by the media and the government.

Hoping lessons have been learnt, but suspect it’s because it affects the south.

All those dogs were killed yesterday a tree brought a power line down on their kennel block and electrified the runs 🙁

I hope everyone in the worst hit areas is safe and there is not too much damage, but this just highlights the north/south divide as the government called a cobra meeting and called in the army and the news hasn’t stopped going on about it, but when the north east and Scotland had a red warning before Xmas no one seemed to care! Thousands of people were without power for two weeks!

Stay safe Southerners. Us Northerners suffered weeks ago, but we can deal with it apparently. Old people living without heating and lighting for a couple of weeks is ok up here. But fuck me, down South, it's headline newspaper news.

I’m worried, I’m in the red zone! Making me nervous driving to work tomorrow
People should be allowed to stay home from work it's just not worth the risk to peoples lives. In the red zone as well and worried about hubby driving to work.

Stay safe everyone ❤

I used to work for a boss like that. Because it wasn’t snowing outside his work window he refused to let me leave, even though where I lived 40 miles away already had bad snow. One of the worst driving experiences I have ever had.
Yeah I worked for a prick like that too, back in 2010 when it snowed in Ireland for 3 months non stop, snow was really accumulating and I asked if I could work the rest of the day at home, he refused saying “it’ll be gone by home time”. Then to try to make a point he decided to head off in his car to go to a meeting and got stuck on a bridge for hours. He literally had to be rescued along with loads of others who got stuck. I was fucking delighted for him 🤣

We've been saying that for the past 24hrs. All 4 previous recent storms have absolutely BATTERED us. But there was no cobra meetings etc for us 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
I am still seriously traumatised by the 3 day power cut we had with malik
