So many things to shock in recent days and this is just one.
Police officers mocked by beach-goers in #Exmouth. Awful. https://t.co/w5FbBxjX7e

So awful that the worst fears ahead of the bank holiday have so tragically become reality. Thoughts to all those affected and those emergency service teams battling at the frontline in such terrible circumstances.
The most tragic news as police and coastguard release full details of incidents at sea today

The sea in Cornwall has been crystal clear since the end of March. But no, it's nothing to do with lockdown and Mother Nature healing herself. From this weekend, it will lose some clarity. But no, that's nothing to do with people heading to the beaches. https://t.co/VMSRZoCFmL

There are very real fears that the lack of RNLI patrols will see an increase in tragedies
