Broadly 50% of airport staff are left after cuts, and 35% of NHS and health related public servants/employees. Could just be nobody left to switch the lights off… but does seem strange all these systems just crumble within a week.

    Honestly not surprised that the air traffic stuff is failing, considering that most of that tech, hardware and software is decades old without any meaningful investment towards making it better and I wouldn’t doubt the same is happening with the Porky’s computer systems or the NHS phone lines

    Like how a pothole never actually gets fixed, just repeatedly patched over and over, so too are these systems failing because nobody is actually doing anything about it
