@KentHighways I really think you need to come and sort out the chaos near the Beltinge exit of the A299, caused by 4 way lights at what 3 words ///jumped.closed.score

@LeShuttle_Help I was booked on the 14.16 shuttle, arrived at the terminal in plenty of time, all of a sudden I'm on the 14.46. Yet your info page says all departures running to time. You don't even bother, anymore for you?

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE You haven't included this diversion on your website.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

You've cancelled every service from Calais between 18.46 and 19.52. Over an hour. And yet your website claims departures as normal.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@LeShuttle_Help once again, your services are being "reprogrammed". The more normal phrase is "cancelled". This appears to be because you don't have enough travellers to fill your trains. Here's an idea, reduce your exorbitant prices and maybe more people will use you?

BREAKING: Trump ignorantly attacks NATO:

"If the US was in trouble and we called them... France, do you think they're gonna come and protect us? I'm not so sure."

FACT: France lost 90 Lives and spent tens of billions of dollars fighting for us.

FACT: The US is the only country to ever exercise Article 5. After the 9/11 attacks, NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in its history, declaring that an attack on the United States was an attack on all NATO members. The following NATO member states participated in military operations in Afghanistan under the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and later Operation Resolute Support:

Countries That Exercised Article 5 to help us:
- United States 🇺🇸
- United Kingdom 🇬🇧
- Canada 🇨🇦
- France 🇫🇷
- Germany 🇩🇪
- Italy 🇮🇹
- Netherlands 🇳🇱
- Belgium 🇧🇪
- Denmark 🇩🇰
- Norway 🇳🇴
- Spain 🇪🇸
- Portugal 🇵🇹
- Turkey 🇹🇷
- Greece 🇬🇷
- Czech Republic 🇨🇿
- Poland 🇵🇱
- Hungary 🇭🇺
- Slovakia 🇸🇰
- Slovenia 🇸🇮
- Romania 🇷🇴
- Bulgaria 🇧🇬
- Estonia 🇪🇪
- Latvia 🇱🇻
- Lithuania 🇱🇹
- Iceland 🇮🇸 (provided logistical support, as Iceland has no standing military)
- Luxembourg 🇱🇺 (limited troop deployment and financial support)
- Croatia 🇭🇷 (joined NATO in 2009, contributed afterward)
- Albania 🇦🇱 (joined NATO in 2009, contributed afterward)

@StagecoachSE Really?? Because of a road closure 11 miles away, buses are being diverted in Margate? But not actually in Beltinge itself where, um, the road the bus goes along is closed? Might want to recheck this one...

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@fecochrane1 The problem , Feargal, is the astonishing number of people that pay good money to read this bilge AND believe it! I'm sure that we've all had surreal conversations with @MailOnline readers over the last 50 odd years.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

Presumably they just guess without asking anyone. From @guardian

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@musical_lou @KentCricket Well, not quite perfect...

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE Oh ok, if you're sure. Thank you.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE Reculver Road in Herne Bay is due to be closed tomorrow - can you tell me what the diversion route for the 36 will be, please?

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE Evidently not. Not showing on your app.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE errr what just happened to the 36 from Margate to Herne bay? Due at 14.56, just vanished?

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE It should have been 14.21 from marine terrace. Your app said it was due at 14.56. can you confirm that the 36 to Herne bay due in birchington at 16.37 is running?

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@LeShuttle_Help We've paid premium prices to use you. For a very second rate experience. Rubbish.

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@LeShuttle_Help I understand the delays caused by the border controls, so we missed our train. But the next train in an hour?? Says 3 trains an hour at check in. This is the second time in 2 months we've experienced unacceptable delays. Not happy with your "service"

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@The_Goods_Shed @canterburycc Well that's an interesting message, I wonder what @canterburycc have to say...

[Brian Lingley @clbrl01]

@StagecoachSE "Improvements" Hahahaha! Halving the service from Beltinge to Canterburyisn't an improvement. We need two buses to get to Whitstable - currently takes 48 minutes, after next Monday it will take 1 hour and 20 minutes. Does that count as an improvement?
