Family of missing worker: Didcot power station rescue delay is 'diabolical'

A family member of one of the three men trapped under the rubble of thecollapsed Didcot power station has called the delay in their rescue"diabolical".

Mike Collings, 53, was killed and three other demolition workers were buriedand left unaccounted for when the structure folded nearly two weeks ago. Emergency services have since said it is "highly unlikely" the missing are still alive and last week stated that the recovery operation could take months.

Two of the trapped men have been named by their families as Chris Huxtable and Ken Cresswell.

A petition has now been launched by the partner of Mr Huxtable in a bid to"get them out now" - garnering more than 1,200 signatures so far.
