Hoping they all get out safely. It sounds difficult and frightening.

The international effort to rescue twelve Thai children and their coach, including British divers, is the kind of thing that makes you proud of humanity and gives you hope for the world.

Someone said the other day an inflatable Trump baby made them proud to be British. It's the British divers and people like them that make me proud to be British. Yes England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales I mean all of you.

Eight boys and coach remain as Thai cave rescue paused .

[Four youngsters led to safety but rescue workers need "up to 20 hours" to prepare for next phase of operation.]

I don't like the blame game, these are a young group, and people make mistakes all the time, that is why there are groups trained to rescue because people do stupid stuff, hope they all get out safely

Yeah and apparently it's normally perfectly safe to go there, it was a bit of a freak thing that they flooded so early

brilliant news that they've gotten 4 of them out, fingers crossed for the rest of them
