Airline pilot kind of suggests that it was done in a jet airliner, but it was a tiny single prop plane. Still impressive!

Immigration officers have told the BBC that since the UK left the European Union, it has become more difficult to check criminal records from some other countries.

This should really be the headline.

Yeah, I was expecting it to be much worse to be honest. Obviously they should have said something right away and hopefully they’ve learned their lesson. Not sure I’d write them off for this one incident from 7-8 years ago but it’s probably still good to have that asterisks on their name.

It they’re not explaining why then they’ve likely fallen fowl off anti money laundering laws. Maybe they’ve had some transactions with sanctioned accounts?

What’s wrong with Nord?

will allow the Home Office to recover costs from adults who have been housed or who have received financial support while waiting on their asylum claim.

They’re already getting accommodation and financial support. I’m not entirely sure what the point of this is, on the grand scheme of things I can’t imagine these costs making a big dent in the finances of the country, and we’d probably spend a good chunk of money administrating and trying to recover this money.

Maybe it’s more about trying to discourage asylum seekers from coming here in the first place, or filtering out those who are genuinely in need.

I think this is being made out to be a bigger deal than it is. Any military vessel of any nation would warn off vessels that approach too closely and don’t respond.

Have you got any proof that this was done by Brits, for homegrown reasons, and not by Russia? Or are you just speculating and making stuff up for… reasons?

I wonder what the people do day to day. I can’t even imagine how much it must suck to be a kid there.

One day I fear that the it’ll go the way of the Premier League, where certain races will only be available on certain services. Not that I pay for Sky, but still.

It’s not called The Daily Heil for nothing

OP, how is this not incredibly awkward?!

Bread basket of the belt.

I mean a regular, normal form factor phone, not a foldable.

There haven’t been any small phones for about 10 years.

Thank you!

My friend lives in the Netherlands, and we don’t see each other very often. It’s for a big birthday celebration for myself so it’s a bit of a one off trip, I’ve always wanted to go to Berlin. I think my last trip away was possibly 10 years ago!

I’d love to use trains, but they’re so much slower and way more expensive. A return journey cuts into some very precious, limited time off.

I’m going to Berlin soon and I checked out the rail option first, it it’s just unfeasible.

Trust me, we think this looks terrible.

I’m convinved that this post is some kind of bait.
