>Almost all the records are being set at weather stations that can't measure change in the climate due to urban corruption or being sited at runways.

OK - challenge that claim head-on if that's your concern. It's only about "record breaking temperature in Britain" so you can't counter it with records of days without rain or even duration above some temperature. Your only argument seems to be "I sneer at it".

It seems to be that if there are enough +/-5 degree C weather stations used to pick peak temperatures from, then almost every peak temperature is bound to come from one of them coincidentally being near the high end of its uncertainty.
