@MarkHoltom they're obviously not going to use these suggestions, all this does is annoy the employees working on this project
The staff at the met office, of all places, are very well placed to understand the effects of global warming.
I personally think, with this contest, they know exactly what they're doing.
Go and fill this form guilt free!

So the UK Met Office is inviting people to suggest up to 5 names for storms. And apparently lots of people have been suggesting "Storm Bigoil", along with BP, Equinor, Exxon & Shell... This is obviously appalling & definitely not to be emulated via this link:https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/forms/name-our-storms-call-for-names
@MarkHoltom
I'm pretty sure they accept first names only, and take each top voted one for each letter in the alphabet, no? -

@MarkHoltom ah yes 2016, the year the contrarian British publicwere asked to vote and choose to wind up the establishment. Thank goodness that in all such situations wiser heads prevailed and sought a common sense compromise.

@MarkHoltom @jankmammal We all did this last year too. Amusing. They always ignore ‘political’ suggestions though.
@m0rpk @MarkHoltom @jankmammal Storm BP - reason:“a national treasure”.
