False claims suggesting that the BBC has been misreporting temperatures in southern Europe have been spreading on social media.
A clip of Neil Oliver, a GB News presenter, accusing the BBC “and others” of “driving fear” by using “supposedly terrifying temperatures”, has been viewed more than two million times.
For the past few weeks, an intense heatwave has been sweeping through parts of southern Europe and north Africa, with extensive wildfires breaking out in Greece, Italy and Algeria - leading to more than 40 deaths.
Speaking about the fires on Rhodes on GB News on Monday, Mr Oliver accused the BBC, and other broadcasters, of trying to “make people terrified of the weather”.
Boomers gonna boomer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
At the end of the day, they’re again the ones that are going to suffer the most with the higher temperatures, it’s kind of like karma really.
No they won’t, they’re going to live fast, die old and leave an absolute ton of healthcare cost for their descendents.
If there’s one thing boomers made it clear this decade, it’s that they’re not going quietly.
They need to be called the ‘me’ generation again due to some of their selfish, short sighted acts.
I think they want to be called the “Last” generation, they seem to hate everything that isn’t them.
we’re gonna get old too lol
Jokes on you, I don’t plan on getting old! 🤪
/s
I reject your reality, and choose to substitute my own. I’m going to remain 36 forever… Please…? 🥺
That depends on a bunch of things.
