Almost 30hr delay to our @easyJet flight now. I'm told the problem's a lack of staff due to the pandemic compounded,in the case of the UK, by #Brexit. So it's at least some consolation to find arch Brexiteer @michaelgove caught up in the same shitshow #BrexitChaos #BrexitShambles

London. The name given to the city by migrants. The word "station" from the Latin, and "name", from the German. The word "English" is from the Latin word Angli, meaning "the people of Angul".ย Angul was an area in Northern Germany.ย  We've been mixing for years. Get over it.

This is London - the station name should be in English, and English only.

The UN's Refugee Convention was a response to the horrors of the #Holocaust and the mass deplacement following WW2. The Trump administration has chosen #holocaustmemorialday to launch its policy of stopping all refugees from entering the USA to seek safety from conflict.

@PayerSusan You haven't understood what I wrote. I have no objections to the release of women and children.

@PayerSusan I guess that's a question for the Israeli government who agreed the swap.

@PayerSusan We don't yet know anything about them except, we're told, that most are women and children. Once we know, I see no upside to choosing ignorance over knowledge or information over disinformation. But lots to be gained from learning.

@StanleyClishem It has workforce shortages like the NHS as a whole and has lost its EU research funding.

@awswain Lots. That's how economic migration works. But I don't recall the leave campaign explaining that after Brexit EU nationals would be replaced by non- EU nationals from further afield and that net migration would triple.

@overlook61 @narindertweets At my local hospital 16% of staff were EU nationals before Brexit. And 13% of their research funding came from the EU (ยฃ1.4m)
