oh i seeeeeee. well to be fair, they do look a bit foreign, and we know what that means...

It's all very well having a go at migrant workers but what would the papers angle be if all the British workers in Spain, France, Italy, Germany etc got forced to return to the UK?

Ryanair makes online checkin the default

Ryanair is doing away with the airport check-in desk.

The ‘no-frills’ airline has decided that the administration of passengers at the airport should be classed as a frill.

All travellers will have to check in online, and anyone turning up without their pre-printed check-in card from the internet will be charged a £40 ‘boarding card reissue fee’.

and the first comment...

Damn money grabbers. Not everyone has a computer. They should be boycotted!

Not to mention the fact she's not in a ryanair serviced location!

So National Express are planning on charging £5 for a SEAT on selected rail services up the East Coast Mainline? A few years ago it used to cost £1 to reserve a seat (not compulsary) but £5!? Sheer rip off.

I notice the xenophobe press have no problem with Australian, American, Canadian etc migrant workers, as they're all nice, white, English-speaking migrants!

Or, as the Sun is owned by an Australian who fleeces the British public for all they're worth, perhaps it's best they don't mention it too much!

Or, as the Mail is owned by a (soon-to-be-if-not-already) non-dom....

Or, as the Express / Star is owned by a man who made his millions flogging rags with naked Asian chicks in them....
