My sister is in Qatar

Have things escalated since yesterdays news re Qatar and the diplomatic row with other Gulf nations?

It will be interesting to watch as things pan out between Saudi and Qatar.

Qatar owns vast swathes of London, and has close links with Iran. It accuses Saudi of funding Isis.

Saudi has close trading relations with the U.K. In order to kill innocent children. It hates Iran (why do you think Trump went there) It accuses Qatar of funding terrorists.

We know that the government is suppressing information about Saudi support of terrorists, most of those in the U.K. Who have killed/maimed our children and adults have benn indirectly funded by Saudi.

What's the betting that May will keep schtum?

The only news my sister can get it via the BBC , all other news is censored. My B in L works at the airport and he is off today but tomorrow will have more news.
If they have to fly over Iran then all the planes will be taking off and landing from the same direction. More difficult apparently.

This is a live feed from Al Jazeera

Rudd was at a political meeting and one of the panel was making a speech about the Saudi Arabian funding of Isis.

Rudd got his microphone taken away!!!!!!!! The audience were not happy

Interesting Yggdrasil,
Today the UAE have made Qatari women married to Saudi or UAE men return to Qatar without their husbands or children.
UAE and Saudis' have to return home immediately or risk being denied entry later. Ever!
Anyone who has a residents visa for Qatar won't be allowed in any of the counties that have taken this action.
Germany have deplored this action and appear to be blaming Mr.T.
The Egyptians aren't demanding their citizens return but the Egyptians are very worried that they will be deported any time soon.
Iran has opened its airspace but that doesn't solve the whole problem. They have promised to trade food so that must be a relief.
Another scary situation.
