Awful any day of the year but especially today. Thoughts are with the families.

Just seen this online too, horrible.

Initial reports are saying a number of fatalities, hopefully that number is very low.

very sad indeed,
wonder what happened as i can't imagine the traffic was heavy or conditions all that bad

[IainW]

That's tragic at this time of year. And only a few weeks after the fatal pileup just a bit up the road on the Southbound side. I hate that whole area of the M6 from Lancashire down to Birmingham. There's always something going on every week.

Only a few miles from me

As a practising RC I am onto arranging a Mass to said for the victims and the injured. I will keep you posted ladies and gentlemen .

Can't the flamin BBC website turn off the default 'have you been affected, send your pictures and videos to..'. It's just so insensitive when it appears at the bottom of stories like this.

RIP to those involved.

[HoHoHo]

That's terrible news

Nothing else I can say really.

[taylor172]

not much consolidation but they have now changed it to a one vehicle crash.

+100%

All it needs now is that ginger pie-eater from Sky news to turn up and start asking the emergency services and relatives for their reactions.

As said before, a horrible thing to happen any time but especially on Christmas Day, RIP to all those who have lost their lives.

I've just emailed them to ask them to do that. It's so crass and insensitive.

Dreadful thing to happen at any time, but all the more distressing today of all days. Thoughts are with those touched by this awful tragedy

Sad news

BBC said:

Staffordshire Police initially said "several vehicles" had been involved, causing "multiple fatalities", but later said it was a one-vehicle crash.

[iluvmercs]

My hear goes out to those concerned

RIP.
