yeh. we arn't supposed to collide into other plates as most geologists show UK with no plates colliding... So it has to be a plate splitting and then going back together.. I don't know if the after shock has came yet? Anyway BBC showed a video of kids playing the WII at 1am and the earthquake happerned and you could hear glass smashing and they lost signal on the tv.
Earthquakes have nothing to do with global warming...

Britain is in the middle of the Eurasian plate, nowhere near and plate boundaries. There is a quite big fault line or crack under us though.Quote:
