WHAT has become of our country when a bit of dust gets us all worked up?

Went I went out to my car one morning last week I noticed it was fairly mucky but never thought any more about it.

Little did I realise that is was no ordinary dust, but from the Sahara desert no less!

The media went mad with stories of air pollution and how we were all in danger.

Those with health problems were advised to stay indoors and to reduce any sort of physical activity.

Presumably if you’ve got some sort of lung problem you have to be careful anyway and I imagine take care when doing any exercise.

Can’t we think for ourselves any more? Do we really need the Government to issue health warnings?

It’s ridiculous.
