The heatwave sweltering people in Europe - particularly in the UK - has reached a concerning milestone. 

The temperature passed 40 degrees for the first time in UK history yesterday.

It’s like something from a disaster movie, as mass electricity outages have been reported, and a major incident declared as fires burn across London as well as around Europe.

While some see it as a free holiday, it’s being described as a clear sign of climate change.

From the scorching UK is Channel 7’s Europe Bureau chief, Hugh Whitfeld.
