It's so terribly sad, the lengths some people will go to to try and get a better life. I can't imagine that they had any idea what kind of temperatures they would be exposed to.
It certainly puts our grumbles about the UCDS into perspective.
As a side note, JNB-LHR 8000 miles?!
The Guardian haven't been recruiting from the Daily Mail have they?

They all seem to be copying each other - 8,000 miles is on pretty much every report!

I think they've plugged "JNB" and "LHR" into Google Maps and worked out how far it would be to
drive not fly!

This type of event has happened with alarming frequency over the years. See:

Very sad.
