What a dramatic rescue. I’m just very relieved that the miners are all out.
I was in London yesterday and stopped for a coffee at the rotunda thing in St James’s Park. When I came out, there was none other than Sebastien Pineira sitting on a bench fretting over some paperwork, surrounded by aides.
I reckon he did a great job. Yes, he probably got a fair bit of political mileage out of it, but at least he was there at the mine head showing solidarity.
Just remeber what Putin was doing when those sailors on board the Kursk were marooned at the bottom of the Barents Sea.
