Unwelcome visitors

Editor, I flew into Faro on the late flight on Friday 30 July from Dublin.

Two other non schengen flights had landed just before us so there were about 400 to 500 people to go through border control and there was only one border guard to process these 400/500 people at first. So it took me 1 hour and ten minutes to get through border control from joining the queue to getting through. What a horrible first impression of the Algarve! Portuguese Border control know the day before when flights are coming in, so why can’t they put an appropriate number of passport checkers at the controls?

Is it reasonable at all to think that while all of the lies and injustices going on in the world at the moment there is a great desire for doing what's best for the people, let alone wanting them to feel comfortable. More likely they want misery for people to prepare them, beat them down mentally, for whatever type of new world of slavery they are building in the shadow of this fake pandemic. They will fail however, the world cannot be subdued to slavery. It can look good on paper for the elite but it will not go as smoothly in reality.
