Section of White Cliffs of Dover Collapses Into the Sea
msn ^ | 1-5-2021 | None

A man fishing near Samphire Hoe captured a video of a section of the White Cliffs of Dover collapsing into the sea on February 3. Dennis McIntyre took the video and shared the footage on Facebook. He stated he saw pieces of debris and dust falling when he started recording, then he heard cracking sounds like an explosion as the collapsed pieces of chalk and flint hit the water. Councillor Steve Albon from the Thanet District Council urged the public, “Please use common sense and caution – stay away from the edge and base of cliffs at all times and pay attention to any warning signs and safety messages.”

I always choke up when I hear her recording of “We’ll Meet Again”. So touching when one considers the era it was so often sung.

#29. Re the question of “Was it, the cliffs collapse, Trump’s fault”?

Only if an active quake faultline named the “Trump Fault” ran parallel to the Dover/English Channel.

Otherwise, it was “Nobody’s Fault”, whoever that is.

There’s no question. It was all three but especially the third. (Don’t forget: RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA!, also)

Britain’s most used suicide spot along with Beachy Head in Sussex
Their Golden Gate or Sunshine Skyway

They look quite similar and about same height 500 foot

Edge to Beachy Head

Gibraltar (UK) is just a tiny pimple on the SE Spain coast and is not connected otherwise to England.

Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.


Has such an eternal ring of truth ...
