IanDarkpeak;159526]At last some one talking sense. It should be syndicated to all news dept.
Unfortunately Mr Weir is still saying things like, "We have come within inches of turning the Lake District mountains into a morgue. We need to learn from it."
And the same BBC report seems to be trying to give the impression that all of the competitors were rescued, "A major rescue effort was mounted and all 2,500 participants were found safe".
"The emergency services and the RAF had to be brought into action to rescue stranded runners." I'm not sure how true that was.
At least it does give the other viewpoint.
