I read online about a ‘possible’ involvement of Russia, but clearly that was not the case fortunately.

I have followed this all day yesterday and never saw or heard any mention of Putin.

I don't know how you heard "Putin/Russia been named as ‘possible’ involvement."

Even the people responsible for the "suspicious parcel" were allowed on their way.

Nothing to see.

Sarnia, Trump won'y inherit any problems. He is a narcissist and all he does is for his benefit. And if that means messing with the USA he will do it

Sarnia I have posted similar. Utterly dreadful and totally irresponsible if we are correct.

Absolutely. I wish Gransnet would install a like button and similar for posts.

He may still be the elected President of the United States but Joe Biden should not be allowed anywhere near making decisions on giving long-range missiles for Ukraine to use against Russia. He hasn't the mental capacity anymore, either that or he is trying to cause more problems for Trump to inherit.

JaxJacky I saw it on either the Apple News app website or the BBC app website. Things seem to be calming down now at Gatwick but of course there must be lots of delays with passengers stacking up.

Is it only me that finds things so depressing at the moment? going away in the morning for a few nights to somewhere warm. We have a very young relative who will be lucky to make it to Christmas. In some ways I wish I wasn't going away.

According to The Independent (online) Gatwick South Terminal is now reopening.

Gatwick North Terminal was not affected.

Wonder if it’s a box of donuts in the package.

Where did you see the Russian link NanKate?

There was also a suspect package found by the US Embassy London this morning, it turned out to be a hoax.

Oh goodness. I did wonder what sort of thing would happen next. Dreadful.

A suspect package has been found. Mass evacuation. Putin/Russia been named as ‘possible’ involvement.

My son is driving back home that way tonight so I have warned him to find another route.
