Abnormally high UK temperatures continue

"Life is tough and some people just need to toughen up." is the part I called dumb.

Dealing with the problem is something else altogether.
I just checked quickly - it looks pretty tortuous to get A/C grants though it's changing, and wouldn't suit many.

Earlier in the thread you were denying that heat kills people.
And that you knew, and others didn't understand.
Again, not wise.
I wasnt denying that the heat in a heat wave is a danger to people with other conditions that might agravate those conditions and be a contributing factor in their death. I suggested the average cost of installing an AC unit is between £1500 and £2000 and if you are in a category of life threatening danger through it then this price is your life line. You have to take care of yourself as nobody else will do it.
 
Heat by itself kills, sometimes without comorbidities. Some babies, for example, who obviously need to toughen up? Okay.
And some older people with nothing particular wrong with them, who never imagined what would happen.
You mis-spoke. Stop wriggling!

No, this is on you for being silly, no wriggling from me. You mis interpreted and have now added babies into the mix as an example. Trying to be clever and twisting peoples meanings isn't really anything new on here. I am saying that a normal healthy person doesn't just die from the heat and you need to be sensible and take your own health seriously. I will be out this morning today working in it as well as at a barbeque this afternoon, I am not expecting anyone dying today.
