well for the whingers, I am sure you would love to be responsible (and liable) for 5000+ people residing on a cliff camp site. Get real.....

Warnings are out here for other campsites and caravan sites in Cornwall.

I don't think the met office is a part of .gov.uk

It is an executive agency and trading fund of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy led by CEO, Penelope Endersby. Its main e-mail comes under .gov

She took on the role as Chief Executive in December 2018, the first woman to do so.

My younger daughter and 2 kids are currently camping near Newquay. She has sensibly taken the decision to spend Friday night in a B & B and has managed to book in (fortunately we are looking after the dog). They will weight the tent down as much as poss. and she has skinned her hands hammering storm pegs in around it. (She's on her own, nearest male muscles belong to her 10 yr. old son - who is maturing nicely now, thanks.)

How many people who deride the 'nanny state' ever had a nanny? It's just posh people like Johnson and co (who probably had nannies) who try to whip up derision.
