Malta has also stopped mail to the U.S. @HillaryClinton :(

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Here is the growing list of countries choosing to pause mail deliveries to the U.S. because of Trump's tariff chaos.

Did anyone vote in 2024 to become the new Hermit Kingdom?

Again evil Ryan air tried to charge me for my luggage even though it fit. Really unethical behaviour. Just horrible! #airlinefail #malta #complaint @Ryanair @MaltaAirport

[Edward Duca @DwardD]

@HelpDe_te I do not need to DM you, what I and other customers need is for your staff to behave more humanely. If a bag fits in the metal cage it fits. A soft bag popping out 1-2cm should not be criticised and threatened with a hefty fee. Guide your employees to be reasonable, kind, fair.

[Edward Duca @DwardD]

Ryanair are being unreasonable with their baggage policy. I nearly had to pay even though my tag had the exact cms matching their policy. They were complaining because the soft case bag popped a cm out from their metal case. Fine when pressed. #airlinefail @Maltairport @Ryanair

🩸 World Blood Donor Day! 🩸

Scientists discovered a bacterial enzyme that could turn any blood type into a universal donor type! The enzyme removes antigens from red blood cells, creating universal donor blood.

This could revolutionise blood donation !🏩
