Trump To Send Federal Judges To Run Heathrow?
Is This Some Sort Of Metaphor For Europe As A Whole?
Is This Some Sort Of Metaphor For Europe As A Whole?Yeah, I know. We’ve got our own problems over here in the “New World”—and plenty of them. Still …
I always recall Alexander Mercouris describing the mood of absolute giddiness at the last Munich Security Conference before REAL war broke out—giddy at the prospect of crushing and looting Russia. That was supposed to ensure that Europe became top dog forever.
Should America be helping? Maybe Trump should send federal judges to the Yookay to run the airports and handle air traffic? When you’ve got a special relationship, nothing says that more than sending our judges.
The clown rearmament has begun. Reality is that the NATO/USAID blob money is leaving and the grifters need a new grift. Europe won’t get a serious military out of this. It’ll just get endless Brussels looting and a collapse of institutional trust.

BREAKING NEWS FROM YOOKAY BUNKER: Yookay leader controls many, many multiple divisions. He moves them around on a map after his afternoon nap while waiting for his meds.
Here comes the metaphor …
Everyone complains how bad Heathrow is. Now the Yookay is experiencing South African-style power outages while the political class focus obsessively on a fantasy war they have no influence over. If you live there I strongly suggest leaving as it’ll only get worse.

UK risking its status as transatlantic air corridor. Heathrow is already completely dysfunctional. Now people are asking whether it has sufficient redundancy built in.
@Keir_Starmer needs to stop playing toy soldiers and fix his wrecked country.

Today’s total closure of London-Heathrow will affect at least 1,351 flights to/from LHR.
That doesn’t include any flights that might be canceled or delayed due to aircraft being out of position.

That’s an absolutely massive fire… This is really, really bad for basically all British commercial activity. Not just the transatlantic air corridor, also people often fly into London for events and deals.
@Keir_Starmer’s UK seems in freefall.

London-Heathrow Airport, one of the busiest commercial flight hubs in the world, will be completely closed on Friday, following a serious fire tonight at a nearby electrical substation, resulting in a major power outage across West London, which includes Heathrow Airport.
Thousands of flights and millions of passengers are expected to be affected; with over 120 flights heading to Heathrow currently in the air across the world, which will all be required to divert to other airports in the U.K. and Europe. Authorities have not yet said if they expect Heathrow to be reopened by Saturday.

Just about every air traveler who uses the transatlantic air corridor from America to Europe that Heathrow markets itself as is asking this question. Will the British people please ask @Keir_Starmer to fix the absolutely wrecked country and stop playing Napoleon in the Donbass?

What an extraordinary story. And so many unanswered questions:
How did the fire begin?
How was it allowed to take out both the substation and the backup generators?
What does it say about the grid that UK's single most important transport site relies on a single substation? x.com/nationalgriduk…

Probably just coincidence and not retaliation for enabled strikes into Russia.
I’m sure it’s just aging infrastructure starved for maintenance run by Dei hires.
The ex-LA fire chief - the one with a face like a bag of spanners - is currently available.
