This comes as Andy Burnham is set to become the UK’s seventh Prime Minister in a decade, with seemingly no one challenging the “King of the North” for the country’s top job.

This has happened so many times now, is there really anyone left out there that can't see that this is sabotage. There are several very rich and powerful people out there, with plenty of tech savvy people working for them, who don't want ordinary people to use aeroplanes. They did this. They did it last time. They'll do it again next time. Our totalitarian hell waits us.

It's almost as if they don't want the plebs to travel. Can't think why. Surely nothing to do with the loony left, or WEF?

They don’t want people to travel. It’s all planned ahead. ruined peoples holidays and that’s why they want school children’s holidays at the same time convenient I’d say.
@ianplowman8689
January 11, 2024 at 9:02 am
This is a deliberate act, because they want the plebs to stop flying and travelling. They want us to stay in the UK, so it leaves the places abroad free for the wealthy, and get back to the way it was in the 1950s. The powers at be, the globalist, want to control you all.

E-Gates, most dumbest ever thing to add to an airport in history. Once again another thing people should not have invented in the notion and the belief that it speeds up the process. When all you had to do in the old days was show your ticket to a designated airline gate staff. Never can understand why, we keep on making these silly technologies that makes things more difficult for ourselves.

Yes indeed the misery of travelling for a holiday by rail. Almost as bad as the misery of working for Profit Railways where most of the profits disappear into the the infinite vaults of CEOs and share holders while the staff try and keep your trains running with duct tape and super glue. The only hope is a Labour government would get rid of the vampires and Nationalise what is an essential public service.

Who here travels to an airport with plenty of time to spare, perhaps 3-4 hours before their flight. Travelling with enough food and pastimes for any delay problem?

Virtually every single government I.T. project screws up badly at some point, and there's a simple and common reason for this. YOU PAY PEANUTS, YOU GET MONKEYS. As someone who earned a handsome remuneration, working in the City through my own I.T. development company for about 20 years, I can tell you that there is an order of magnitude difference between the best I.T. developers and average ones. But government, or those it subcontracts, ALWAYS favour cheapness over quality. Ironically this always costs a lot more in the end.

WHY the sheep persist in ALWAYS wanting to get away just for 3 bloody days every time there's bank- holidays beggars belief, KNOWING that there's gonna' be grid-lock on the roads and any passport-controls!! Jeez, we get good weather nowadays and beautiful scenery in the UK ……. just stay here, f.f.k's sakes.

Calder is a remoaner so will blame eveything he possibly can on Brexit. Portugal allow UK nationals to use E- passports, France, Gerrmany don't. Nothing to do with Brexit per se, just another example of why we were right to leave the EU. These people are not our friends. Also, the E-Gate system is apparently run by the Home Office, so another governmental screw up…..
