@British_Airways we are on the OVERNIGHT delayed flight Kos to LGW, supposed to take off in 25 mins. We have no crew, no information, we’ve all been told to be here for 6am after not being assigned rooms until 11pm. We would like assurance we’re taking off soon.
@British_Airways What weather conditions? There doesn’t seem to be any reported?
Due to the new arrival time I’ll miss the last train from London to newcastle. Will you compensate me for a new train ticket?
@British_Airways I’m on BA2749 and you’ve already decided our flight is over 5 hours delayed. What’s happened to the inbound that it’s so extensive please?

YOU. ARE. SO. FUCKING. CLOSE. TO. GETTING. THE. POINT. YOU. PUMPKIN. SPICE. SCENTED. TRASH. BAG.
And just like that, the very wealthiest party in the U.K. backed by foreign billionaires is supported by the very poorest members of society who dislike foreigners. You couldn’t make this shit up.
At what point do we stop pretending our newspapers are ‘news’ and start calling them what they are…
Promotional pamphlets for the billionaires who own them and the agendas they’re selling.
The UK voted the Tories out of office with a vengeance after more than a decade of mismanagement, corruption and scandals, so naturally the UK then opts to vote them all back into power again, under a different name, alongside the architect of the UKs decline via Brexit.
FFS.
Controversial apparently but I really don't.
Is he a boring and awkward man? Yes.
Is he a bit of a weak leader? Possibly.
But I'd take Starmer over any of his Tory predecessors any day of the week.
“protect women and girls” front man supporting a man that raped a woman to the point she had to get her tampon surgically removed.
it’s almost like they don’t care about victims and just weaponise our experiences to push and normalise racist and bigoted views
One day after having a public meltdown accusing anyone who takes the piss out of him of not caring about men’s mental health, this grifting hypocrite joins a political party that openly pledges to strip benefits from 90% of people with mental health conditions.
“It’s just that all of these Caribbean resorts look exactly the same to me. It’s just a random beach.”
“Oh I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You sit at your laptop, and you select… I don’t know, that all-inclusive resort for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what cookie-cutter consumerist hotel your parents made you go to.
But what you don’t know is that hotel isn’t just all-inclusive, it’s not Ixtapa, it’s not Zihuatanejo. It’s actually Cancún. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in the late 60s, Mexico ran a huge trade deficit with the US. They were industrializing rapidly, importing machinery and materials that had to be paid for in dollars. Then I believe it was INFRATUR, wasn’t it, that actually spent months building a computer model, feeding data to an IBM 360 to analyze Mexico’s entire coastline, evaluating climate, beach quality, accessibility, and development costs.
Then they identified Cancún as a strategic tourism development zone, deliberately modeled on postwar Mediterranean resort economies. By the mid-1990s, major U.S. and European hotel chains standardized the all-inclusive resort model there. That model was then replicated, refined, and exported across the Caribbean.
Eventually, that choice filtered down through Expedia algorithms, airline bundle deals, and trickled on down into some TikTok’s influencer video which you no doubt watched in bed doom scrolling. However, Cancún represents billions of dollars in coordinated state planning, private capital, labor arbitrage, and tourism dependency. Tens of thousands of jobs. Entire regional supply chains.
And it’s sort of comical that you think you simply picked "a random beach" when in fact you’re sipping a piña colada at a resort selected for you by the Mexican federal government’s years-long optimization process… from a bunch of random beaches.”

I’m not a Muslim, nor a Jew but I am a human being. My thoughts are with those impacted by horrific events in Manchester today & my thoughts are with those in Gaza. I see nothing controversial in this. I don’t have to pick a side, I choose right over wrong, wherever I see it.
