@SkySportsGolf would someone please tell @ButchHarmonDVD to stop calling every player ‘kid’. So condescending. His commentary is so out of date.

France Rugby World Cup 2023 organisers defend ticket strategy rugbyworld.com/news/france-ru… vous vous trompez @ClaudeATCHER. Totale arrogance

@ClaudeATCHER vous avez vraiment se tromper. Les derniers deux Coupe du Monde etait billeter par ballot. Votre systeme de “ first come first served” est honteux et n’est pas juste. Les billets sont deja revendue sur l’internet. Vous devriez avoir honte de vous-mêmes

@France2023 Why didn’t you ticket by ballot like the last two RWCs in Japan and Uk. Disgraceful arrogance

@France2023 Why are you sounding so chirpy. Your system is a disgrace. Last two RWCs in Japan and Uk were by ballot. Why are you so arrogant to adopt this method of ticket allocation, where we have to queue for 5 hours and get thrown off your website. Appalling incompetence

@chamberlain_dr @France2023 @rugbyworldcup Last two RWCs in Japan and Uk done by ballot. Only fair system. Ticket touts have had a field day

@France2023 @rugbyworldcup I got kicked out too at 100%. Ridiculous system. At some point you have to take a leaf out of football's book and run a ballot for major tournaments rather than just first come, first served. Those who have been lucky enough to get tickets will disagree!

@RickyRebel79 @France2023 @EnglandRugby Ditto

@France2023 I would love to hear from any England fan that actually just managed to buy a ticket. I spent 5 hrs on Monday and another 2hrs today. Farcical. #rwc2023 #englandrugby @EnglandRugby

@brianmoore666 dear Brian you should throw the book at RWC2023 for not organising a ballot to get tickets. Fiasco, 5 hours fruitless queuing on a dysfunctional website. Why not a ballot like the last 2 RWCs. French know best as they did it this way in 2007. Pure arrogance

@rugbyworldcup Completely untrue. I ve been thrown off queue 3 times now. Got to 40% best so far and then down it went. Why on earth aren’t you doing a ballot like RWC 2019 and 2015. French are differrent! At least there wasn’t panic and you either get in or you don’t. This is incompetent.

@Paulkaz12 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Why don’t you mind your own business. I m not in Australia, can’t get in even if I wanted to. Thousands can’t. Anyway the uk powers will see sense and will not apply hotel quarantine to all travellers. Australia wants to stay locked up, their call.

@bsington @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Some one from Melbourne who lives virtually free of covid to argue against the protocols that gave you that luxury is the height of hypocrisy. I’m sure Dutton will grant you leave to claim your liberty in the UK. Good luck with that. Oh right you work in the tourism industry.

For many, ten days spent under lock and key in a quarantine hotel room would be deeply traumatic – never mind civil liberties, what about human rights? Britain can and MUST do better @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/01/2…

@frozenwarning @Smithy0364 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Yes and latest news looks like they’re going to realise you cannot hotel quarantine every arrival, just some, because there’s too many people travelling. Australia has caps hence Australians can’t get home. Common sense will prevail and it is worth putting up a counter argument

@bsington @Smithy0364 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak No it really isn’t, it’s up to the govt to make a bloody decision based on expert advice, not Twitter polls.

@theoleary @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Because they have the right too. Focus on getting home quarantining right. Many Australians don’t have a right to get home due to hotel quarantine caps, because you can’t house everyone in hotels. Looks like it will only be limited hotel quarantining. Common sense will prevail.

@TimMorton2 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Using derogatory comments like Read the room, get a grip and Jim are attempts to silence. Enough said now.

@Smithy0364 @frozenwarning @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak No generalisation. NZ just had a case yesterday after quarantine. hotel quarantine and moving thousands of people around into it as being mooted in UK doesn’t necessarily work. It is important that the public can hear both sides of the argument.

@bsington @frozenwarning @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Don’t generalise. It’s only flawed if it’s not managed properly. It works perfectly well in New Zealand.

@TimMorton2 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak It is important that those who feel they are being silenced now speak up so that we can hear both sides of the argument.

@TimMorton2 @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak 1 in 10 Uk citizens live abroad, many of whom have to travel. So more than a room. Hotel quarantine is flawed as infected guests, infect staff who then transmit into the community as in Melbourne.Australians don’t have Human rights many of whom cannot get home.

@meoffg @realzoestrimpel @CitySamuel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Exactly, hotel quarantine doesn’t t work and never will 100%.One family of 4 with Covid in quarantine was responsible for over 90% of those deaths in Melbourne because security guards in hotel became infected and then infected the community. Focus on making home quarantine work

@realzoestrimpel @CitySamuel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak It's not about you, it is about protecting Britain from you and the potential danger you represent to your community. Australia has 909 COVID deaths in total, of those 750 were because the Victorian government bungled it's hotel quarantine, 134 days of state lockdown followed

@frozenwarning @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak her article said she has to travel to look after her parents. 1 in 10 Uk citizens live abroad, many of whom have to travel. So more than a room full. Hotel quarantine is flawed as guests get out and infect staff/security guards who then transmit into the community as in Melbourne

@realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak Tough, don’t travel abroad then. Jesus, read the room.

@Timpressive @realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak She said in her article she has to travel to look after her parents. 1 in 10 Uk citizens live abroad, many of whom have to travel. Hotel quarantine is flawed as guests get out and infect staff/security guards who then transmit into the community, as in Melbourne

@realzoestrimpel @grantshapps @michaelgove @RishiSunak The answer is simple: if you don’t want to have to quarantine - don’t travel. 10 days of quarantine in a hotel is not fun, but how much fun do you think it is for those who end up in the ICU?
