Absolute chaos this morning @STN_Airport ! At 4.45am we were facing an unbelievably long queue to get to security . Took us over 1 hour!! Staff were beyond rude, and had no protocol to prioritise people/earlier flights. Many of us missed our flights. No guidance from anyone! 0/10
ALT Information update from London Stansted Airport regarding extended queue times at security due to an earlier IT issue, thanking passengers for their patience.

My first official reading of I Could Be Eaten By A Shark went down very well😊. Thank you @Better_UK and #roehamptonlibrary for having me.
