Tunisia Shootings June 2015

Travel firm told Sousse survivors Tunisia was 100% safe, inquest hears

Every day I follow the news from the inquest every day witnesses to the event are complaining that the holiday company did not advise them of a danger of terrorism in Tunisia despite the Foreign office live advice at the time.

Whilst the Coroner is still to rule have we gone so far down the plughole that someone is to blame even when the Government advice at the time was that is was potentially dangerous.

Clearly these witnesses are being coached and are insisting they were not given a warning by TUI when they couldn't themselves be bothered to read the official advice on the FO website.

Tunisia was a cheap holiday for a reason. Some are even saying that as the hotel was 5 star they expected security on the standard of a US embassy.

Of course if the Coroner finds that TUI did fail in their duty of care it will lead to various litigation and will have the net result of increasing possibly quite substantially holiday costs or the removal of itineraries and destinations thought to be in any danger zone. Turkey and the whole of the Middle East for example.
