Horrible. Just Horrible

For two days I have woken up to sheer terror.

On Friday I woke up and realised there was another terrorist attack in France. A truck drove at high speed into a large crowd and killed up to 80 people. IS has not claimed responsibility, but the action has every element of a terrorist attack.

Today I woke up to the news of an attempted Turkish military coup. As much as I hate the clampdown done by the Turkish government, a coup can and will never be a solution. In a country where democracy is practised, if a government were to be toppled, it has to be done by the people, not the military.

2016 has proved a worse year than 2015.
