Rescue workers and medics carry a woman out of the debris of a collapsed building in Elbistan, Kahramanmaras, in southern Turkey, Tuesday, February 7, 2023
THE death toll from Monday’s devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria has soared above 5,000, with some experts predicting that the tally could reach as high as 20,000.
Thousands of people have been injured by the magnitude 7.8 earthquake but many more have yet to be accounted for.
Search teams and emergency aid from 30 countries poured into the affected areas on Tuesday as rescuers dug through the remains of buildings flattened by the earthquake and the reported staggering 145 aftershocks.
But with the damage spread over a wide area, the massive relief operation has struggled to reach devastated towns and voices that had been crying out from the rubble fell silent.
I need to do an article about Keith ‘Tony Blair’ Starmer and the Labour ‘Tory Party 2.0’ Party’s duplicity over broken pledges and the future of the NHS (Wes Streeting too).
I’m suggesting that UK politics was so chaotic in 2022. WTF really. WTF was that floppy-haired useless twat? Can’t we just agree that he’s – he was – just doesn’t measure up to anything? Are you seriously suggesting that that inadequate floppy-haired total nothingness was adequate to govern UK? That’s so insulting – that such an inadequate was proposed to be in charge of UK. And then you really did. After giving us such an inadequate, totally – I’m finding the words difficult here. What you did is provide the most inappropriate person and the with Liz Truss???
ed: Liz Truss: A different dimension of Conservative madness.
ed: WTF Let’s say it What the Fuck? What the Fuck? You gave us Boris who was totally inappropriate as a PM because he lies easier than breathing. Then you gave us Liz Truss? At least I know my madness …
I can accept that the World is mad but I’m not sure that you should be promoting totally incompetent. mad. people to positions of power …
2am: Actually, You shouldn’t promote mad fuckers to be PM.
ed: Yes it’s New Years Eve but I still have so much more competence. There is competence and there is the opposite (mad or drunk or like Boris never ever fucking ever never grounded)
I wish you all a good new year, hope that you achieve what you want and that we don’t have another one like 2022 with all that Conservative government nonsense. X
I’m intending to go sailing in 3 months time while I’m still able to.
I got hassled by one of my followers a few months ago, saying essentially that he relies heavily on me to fight for climate. I have support from many different ‘populations’. I reached out to one of those ‘populations’ recently asking if they had a plan to address the climate crisis. The answer was affirmative but the problem is that it was only later that I realised that their plan was me. I expect to abandon that responsibility while so many people can’t even be bothered to object to getting so shafted.
