A great tragedy for all the families involved, of course. And my condolences go out to them.
I was surprised to hear that, in 2011, there are still people employed to go down mines in the UK. I thought we'd moved on from that sort of thing years ago.
If the owners of the mine can put their hands on their hearts and say that the four men were working in complete accordance with the Health and Safety Act 1974 and subsequent regulations, there is nothing more to be said.
If they can't, they must face the full wrath of the law. And that includes corporate manslaughter.
