Stronger pounds to dollar also will entice people to head to America, long may that continue

The passenger will absorb it and they'll pay it. Trips to America over the past few years have fluctuated anywhere between £700 and £1000 per person. I always fly BA via Heathrow from Glasgow. I wouldn't even notice the difference. The fluctuations in the dollar/pound are enough to change the price more than this alone.

Heathrow charges go from like £19 to £30 per passenger if I remember right, so it'll just get absorbed. Won't affect BA so much. Would affect a budget airline more

Eventually the rest of Europe and the world will react to the obvious news. It seems we've over reacted the most mind you. it's another bump in the road. Don't know what the short term direction will be but Eventually institutional investors will buy with an eye on summer and they won't wait till Spring. This peak in cases will burn out soon.

Soar there is no hospitals with people lying on floors. Where's this come from?

Doubled since omicron so you can expect the trolls to hang around and the SP to be under pressure I reckon.

Deaths are dropping this varient seems to have burned itself out down there. Also on the plus side some positives in bojos speech. They're not shutting things down, economy etc. and also seeing a drop in the hospitalisation of the vulnerable. Probably just the metropolitan bed wetters rushing to hospital (sorry londoners) but I'm all out of compassion. hopefully this is all a flash in the pan. Cold virus gone mad is my prediction.

Deaths are dropping in South Africa. The govt are using this as an opportunity to fire vaccines at people. I suspect they knowing mild but have no care for what people think or want

IAG has plenty of access to capital, and is also still operating around 60+% capacity they're not diluting to the point the shares are worth nothing or going bust. Winter will end as it always does,
sure as the sun rises in the morning and holidays will be in high demand

Think how bad it's going to be when today's students are tomorrow's leaders. We're in trouble

Another erse hole meeting tonight (cobra) no doubt freaking everyone out

If you're freaking out about dips in the SP stop looking at it is my advice. The summer was plagued by closed routes and it managed over 200p. IAG is making money now and while the market is freaking out collectively about covid, eventually it'll be about the business.

Still might see that santa rally, although I think even 180 will be a push short term, I think 160 will be a decent short term target

A smart man, is this confirmed wobbles? He knows he's in with a good chance of being PM I did wonder what his vote was last night but hadn't heard.

I assumed the cabinet ministers were all bound by collective responsibility and toed the line. I'm glad to hear some are still conservatives (small c)

Its a nightmare bobbins, there's no consideration for quality of life. mental health is often discussed but never considered by these actors in parliament. It's assumed people's mental health follows the flow of the virus I think. When restrictions are gone everyone is back to being sane again. It stresses me more knowing my life is being controlled by some salesman in a suit and out of my hands. It's detrimental to everyone to have these charlatans making decisions.

Remember when the Conservatives protected businesses and understood the markets dipping had a massive impact on people's retirement, savings and security. Now its just a play thing for those who have the volume to manipulate it on the words of the political class.

Seriously bring back Tony Blair lol

If anyone was in any doubt the government is lying this is confirmation for me. We've been supplied the data with regards to positive test for 2 years. We're now using "guesstimates" of around 200k a day, the positive cases of 50k a day aren't frightening the nation and therefore not adjusting your behaviour to suit your "masters"

We're now in the dangerous territory where govt are saying whatever they like to manipulate everyone.

Reality is being rejected to focus on a problem we cannot control.

Theres always been unconfirmed cases of people asymptomatic and untested. But only now when boris is losing his control is this being deployed.

Go to the pub enjoy your life because they're talking about jabs 5 and 6 and another 2 years of this. Straight from a ministers mouth yesterday!

Anyway hopefully this results in less travel disruption. At least now they realise a virus in the community spreads, shocking, who knew? And that locking up traveller's isn't going to stop the virus thats already here lol.

Geniuses these MPs btw...

Hoping for a good reaction tomorrow...

Labour have sold their soul. A chance to stand up for liberal democracy, undermine bojos government and probably see him on his way out the door. Instead they took the moral high ground.

Opposition in name only, and we'll learn omicron is a mild virus that didn't need any of this panic.

The United Kingdom is dropping all countries from its travel red list, which was reintroduced in late November amid early concerns about the omicron variant’s spread.

The nations on the list were Angola, Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

“Now that there is community transmission … and omicron has spread so widely across the world, the travel red list is now less effective in slowing the incursion of omicron from abroad,” British Health Secretary Sajid Javid told the House of Commons as he announced the change

Stop the salesman tactics. It reeks
