UK Beachy Head toxic gas: mysterious mist hospitalises 230 people

A PACKED tourist hotspot south of London was evacuated and more than 238 people hospitalised after a mysterious chemical mist blew in from the sea.

Hundreds more at the popular Beachy Head were left suffering stinging eyes and breathing difficulties after fleeing the East Sussex coast on Sunday afternoon.

Authorities are baffled about the source of the toxic gas, which some witnesses reported had a smell of chlorine.

Eastbourne District General Hospital was forced to declare a “major incident” as staff in hazmat suits treated people inside pop-up “decontamination” tents.

Witnesses have reportedly said patients were made to change clothes and were hosed down as an extra precaution.

Dramatic pictures show the unusual smog lingering above the sea before moving inland towards revellers enjoying a public holiday long weekend and warm weather at about 5pm on Sunday.

People getting bee tattoos after the Manchester attack + all money is going to the victims

British locals have been flooding into tattoo parlors to get bee tattoos in the after math of Monday’s deadly terrorist attack at a Manchester, England Ariana Grande concert.

The worker bee has long been Manchester’s sigil of sorts, a symbol of the city’s working class history during the Industrial Revolution.

During the 1800s, bee-like locals, known as Mancunians, spent their lives weaving cotton in Manchester textile mills, which were described as “hives of activity.”

The worker bee is also featured prominently on the crest of the city’s coat of arms as a symbol of Mancunians’ industriousness, according to BBC.

The bee symbol is featured prominently in Manchester.

Since Monday’s bombing, tattoo parlors have been offering discounts bee tattoos to raise money for charities benefitting terror attack victims.

The demand has been un-bee-lievable.

Macron claims 65 per cent of votes

With more than 44 million of France’s 47 million registered voters accounted for, official Interior Ministry figures confirm independent centrist Emmanuel Macron has been elected president with 65.31 per cent of valid votes cast so far.

About 12.5 per cent of votes cast were either blank or spoiled, the official figures show, while 24.7 per cent of the voters accounted for abstained.

Polling agencies earlier projected that Macron had defeated far-right leader Marine Le Pen 65 per cent to 35 per cent.

Macron supporters gathered outside the Louvre museum in central Paris broke out in wild cheers and waved the French flag as the news of his lead came through.

More likely to find a hand gun than an electric kettle in a kitchen in America

Wander in to a domestic kitchen in America and you’re more likely to find a hand gun than an electric kettle.

This little nugget of knowledge has just been picked up on Twitter and people are losing their minds over it.

It’s stunning to us because we were colonised by the Brits who love nothing more than a cup of tea (or a Spice Girls reunion). So to a certain extent we have adopted the tradition of flicking the button on the kettle for a nice cuppa. As such the concept of not having a kettle seems terribly quaint to us.

There are delightful tales doing the rounds about Americans picking up an electric kettle when they’re in a foreign country, not understanding how it works, and putting it on the stove to heat it up (thus melting the bottom).

Part of the reason electric kettles are such a rarity in the US is that most of the population drinks coffee instead of tea, and the heating element for coffee is often combined in those drip coffee machines they tend to use at home.

You know those contraptions you always see in TV sitcoms?

This is all fair enough, but how do they boil water for life’s other necessities (such as hot water bottles and making jelly)?

Apparently stovetop kettles are the norm, or they boil the water in the microwave. Which many people find profoundly shocking.
