The 56-year-old had been holidaying in Turkey before he went to leave from Dalaman Airport The van driver only became curious something was wrong when he made an innocent remark to other passengers as they were about to take off. Matt told The Sun Online: ...I had walked through the airbridge, walked on to the plane, I presented my boarding pass so I sat down. ...I could hear all these cockney accents but I wasn't thinking nothing of it. ...I said ...I can't wait to get back to back to Birmingham' and they all smiled at me and people started laughing, and they said ...you mean Gatwick?' and ...I said you've got to be joking me'.

He said: ...She said ...head straight down', so that's what I did, I followed everybody down. ...You know what it's like in airports, you're retired by the time you get through.... Matt says he showed an EasyJet air hostess his boarding pass for his Tui flight but no one picked up he was on the wrong plane. Instead, Matt says that Matt was asked to move seats so a family could sit on the one he was allocated. He explained: ...I said '21A', she said ...are you here on your own?' I said ...yes', she said ...do you mind swapping because there's a family who want to sit together', I said ...no problem, she said '19c then'.... But when he walked to 19C, someone else was already in that seat too, so he was given another seat in the isle.

He said: ...I had to wait about five minutes, because they had already taken the gate off, and they had to reattach the gate and open the door. ...I was panicking and saying to the airhostess ...my flight to Birmingham hasn't gone, has it?' I'm sure she said ...this is EasyJet, we're off to Gatwick.... They reattached the bridge and Matt was directed to the corridor he was supposed to turn down for his flight.

An EasyJet spokesperson told The Sun Online the matter was swiftly dealt with and apologised for the inconvenience. He said: "We are investigating with Dalaman airport and with our partner airline which was operating this flight on behalf of EasyJet. ...As soon as the mistake was realised, prior to departure, the passenger was transferred to their correct flight which was being boarded at the same time through the same gate and we are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

WAVY TV journalist Brett Hall said on Wednesday that a source within the Chesapeake public safety department said first responders found a list near the shooter's body of ...employees he presumably wanted to target.... Hall added that the source was not allowed to speak publicly on the matter, and The U.S. Sun has not been able to independently corroborate the information. On Wednesday, a SWAT team executed a search warrant at the suspect's residence with the help of Virginia State Police. EERIE WARNING Employee and witness Briana Tyler told Good Morning America that there were 15 to 20 employees gathered in the break room waiting to learn their duties for the day when Bing swung the door open and started shooting. ...As soon as my team lead said, ...all right, we have a light night tonight,' I looked up and my manager just opened the door and he just opened fire. ...He wasn't aiming at anybody specifically. He just literally started shooting throughout the entire break room and I watched multiple people just drop down to the floor, whether they were trying to duck for cover or they were hit. ...He didn't say a word, he didn't say anything at all. He just came around the corner and started shooting,... Tyler told GMA. Months before the shooting, Tyler had received a warning from coworkers about the manager-turned-gunman. She told ABC News: ...He was the manager to look out for because there was always something going on with him, just having an issue with someone.... ...He was the manager that everybody, you know, had something to say about, but I would've never thought he would do something like this.... WITNESSES SPEAK Kevin C Harper, who apparently works at Walmart, went live on Facebook detailing what he saw as the gunfire erupted. He said that he walked out of the break room when the shots began. "As soon as I left out the break room, he went in there, man," he said. Harper said that he left his belongings inside the store as he ran to his car and drove off. He added that he saw other people running and did the same. Another worker, a woman, could be heard sobbing in the background of the video. "I ran out the back door," she cried. One bystander's mother was inside the store when shots were fired and sent her texts notifying her of the crime. ...I'm crying, I'm shaking,... Joetta Jeffery told CNN. Read More on The US Sun

FOUL! Rail strikes target footie fans AGAIN as 40,000 RMT staff set to walk out Tremendous perks Nor was there anything convincing about his apology for the "inconvenience" to rail users. He is not sorry at all. In fact, he is revelling in his undemocratic, unaccountable power to bring the network to a standstill. There is not the slightest justification for these new rounds of industrial action in support of massive pay claims and in defence of outdated working practices. At a time when many households are struggling, train drivers enjoy on average a salary of £59,000 with tremendous perks and scope for overtime.

Already the rail strike is estimated to have cost the UK economy £1.2billion. Similarly the Royal Mail has lost £100million through industrial action by postal workers, who also announced this week another round of stoppages in the run-up to Christmas over their pay claim. If unaffordable demands are agreed, they will worsen the spiral of inflation. That is exactly what happened in the late Seventies, when Jim Callaghan was the Labour Prime Minister and Britain was known as "the sick man of Europe" because of industrial chaos. "There is madness in the air," Callaghan's aide Bernard Donoughue wrote in his diary as the anarchy worsened during the Winter of Discontent in 1978-79.

AlamyThey announced this week another round of stoppages in the run-up to Christmas over their pay claim '/ ' As the trade unions flexed their muscles, bodies went unburied, patients were refused entry to hospitals and rubbish piled high in the streets. The unrest has not yet plumbed those depths but it is heading in that direction. Militancy has gripped much of the 5.7million-strong public sector workforce, fuelling a huge wave of potential strikes that could cripple vital services. The strikes today are overwhelmingly in the public sector because that is where the unions are strongest and management is weakest. The strikes today are overwhelmingly in the public sector because that is where the unions are strongest and management is weakest. Moreover, most state services are monopoly providers, which makes them more vulnerable to union exploitation and blackmail. In the past five years, 20 times as many days have been lost to strikes in the public sector as in the private sector. Over the past year, the days lost by public employees have been 100 times higher. Already the growing extent of the militancy is clear. In 2019, 19,500 days per month were lost to strike action. By July, that figure had gone up to 87,600. The combined total for August and September is now close to 560,000. Hardly any part of the public sector is free from the contagion of walkouts. Members of the Royal College of Nursing have just voted for the first strike in their 106-year history in support of a 17.6 per cent pay claim. Other health unions are balloting their members for stoppages, including Unison, which represents 350,000 staff in the NHS, the Chartered Institute of Physiotherapy and the 173,000-strong British Medical Association, whose junior doctors are agitating for a 26 per cent pay increase and will hold a strike vote in January. Similarly, the Public And Commercial Services Union, which represents civil servants and is led by the left-wing firebrand Mark Serwotka, has just backed a series of mass stoppages. Hardly poverty wages In the universities and colleges, disruption continues because of a long-running dispute over pay, pensions and conditions. They could soon be joined by teachers, head teachers, firefighters, ambulance crews and local authority workers. Certainly many public employees do a heroic job, particularly in the NHS, schools and emergency services. But the grievance should not be overdone. The average teacher's salary, for example, is £39,000. Hardly poverty wages. In addition, public employees generally enjoy better job security, far more generous pensions, longer holidays, shorter hours and more flexible working patterns than their counterparts in the private sector. Nor would workers gain if the Government caved in to their pay demands. Such a step would massively increase the costs of public services, and could only be met by higher taxes. Read More on The Sun 
Onlookers watch as the giant blast furnace at Redcar is demolished after it crumbled following its closurePA 
The demolition is a symbol of Britain's declining manufacturing industry \- and the Government's unwillingness to unleash the UK's post-Brexit potentialGetty But it's just been standing there, crumbling, since the steel plant closed down seven years ago. Once, the whole ten miles between Middlesbrough and Redcar was steelworks. As a kid I'd see the red-hot molten metal in the furnaces from the train which ran by the side of the plants. It was exciting and a bit terrifying. There were a staggering 91 blast furnaces on Teesside, providing work for the entire area. Just one steelworks — Dorman Long — employed 20,000 people at its height. Teesside steel made the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We even gave one to the Geordies — the Tyne Bridge. No longer. Not a single blast furnace left on Teesside. Thing is, though it was hard and often dangerous work, steel-making paid well.

The jobs the redundant steel-workers are now doing don't pay anywhere near as much. At best they ended up as bus drivers. A lot are in call centres. The money is three-fifths of nowt. Teesside's loss is Britain's loss. Because, truth be told, we don't make anything any more. In 1948, manufacturing accounted for almost half of our GDP. Now it's down to about 12 per cent. In Germany it's around about double that amount, which is one reason why the German economy is so strong. Use the freedoms won through Brexit This is a huge problem. Our manufacturing base provided us with hard cash from exports. The loss of those manufacturing jobs has left us a low-waged economy, dependent upon the service sector. And as a result, divisions between the rich and poor have grown. This is one of the big failures of successive British governments which have presided over the closure of our industries. I'm not arguing we should start making steel again, when they can do it a lot cheaper in China. But we might make more specialised steel, on a smaller scale, which the Chinese are much less able to do. We should also be using the freedoms we've won through Brexit to exploit the markets in raw materials. Hell, we've seen very little gain from Brexit so far — and that's because the Government hasn't taken the opportunities which are staring them in the face. We need to invest in our industries so we might again become one of the world's powerhouses. We have a superb research base at our universities. We come up with clever solutions to difficult engineering problems. But we have failed to exploit our excellence at R&D and tie it to manufacturing — so that we might actually make some real money. If we want a country which has a National Health Service, and generous welfare benefits for those who are out of work — as well as decent schools, roads, houses — then we need to pay for it. And manufacturing is precisely the way we might do that. I was sad to see that old blast furnace brought to its knees. It's been a feature of the local landscape for so long, a reminder of the time we led the world in engineering. If only we could harness that drive again, to keep us a prosperous country. NEXT STEP, KEIR? 
Nothing in Sir Keir Starmer's nebulous proposal to tackle immigration numbers seem to be different from what the Government is doingGetty LABOUR is promising to take a "pragmatic" view on immigration to this country. I'm not quite sure what that means. Does it suggest that on other issues they will be taking a non-pragmatic view? Or a genuinely stupid view? Still, at least Keir Starmer has at last grasped that we are taking in far too many immigrants at the moment. And he is right to insist that British firms must do much better at training homegrown workers to do the jobs required of them. I agree with him that we need to see an end to the low-pay economy. But that will require a lot more than simply lecturing the heads of businesses, as Sir Keir did this week. And I see nothing in Labour's current proposals that will make much of a difference. GOD spare us from relationship experts. One wrote about stuff you should never say to your partner. This list included, "I hate you" and "You don't turn me on" and "You've got a small penis". (Or as one girlfriend said to me at a crucial moment: "Hmm. That looks very much like a penis. Except a lot smaller.") Other things not to say in a relationship? How about, "Your ar*e is the size of Canada" or, "You smell like my grandmother just before she died". MESSY ARGIES 
Seeing Argentina lose to Saudi Arabia, of all teams, was nothing but hilariousKieran McManus/Shutterstock SHAME about the Argies, wasn't it? Oh, I almost died laughing. And I've only cheered for Saudi Arabia in a football match once before – and that was when they played Ireland. I could have done without the commentators on ITV getting stiffies every time Lionel Messi got the ball, mind. OK, he scored from a penalty. But other than that he was neither use nor ornament. And he was at least partly responsible for Saudi Arabia's equaliser. Incidentally, the idea VAR would rule out uncertainty and unfairness. Umm, still not looking good, is it? WE are falling out of love with the Full English breakfast, a new survey suggests. Researchers asked 2,000 people for their favourite meals and treats. Milk chocolate came first, followed by cheddar cheese. The margherita pizza came next – in fact there were THREE kinds of pizza in the top 12. I really don't get pizza. They are just slabs of grease smeared on cardboard. I think I would rather eat Matt Hancock's underpants. In fact, I suspect pizza is the reason why our country has gone down the toilet. Food for people who don't really like food – either cooking it, or eating it. 
SOME good news for you. The rain buckets down and the streets are under water. Rivers are overflowing and if you try to walk in the countryside you'll sink up to your knees in mud.

Man United fans from all over the world might rejoice at the American owners of their club getting ready to sell up \- but who's likely to be replacing them?Getty LOOKS like Manchester United fans might get what they've long been wishing for. The rich American owners of their club, the Glazer brothers, are set to sell up for about six billion quid. So there will be rejoicing in United's fanbase (Guildford, Exeter, Maidstone, Kuala Lumpur etc). But the fans ought to be a bit worried, too. Because who are they likely to get as new owners? It's not going to be a local bloke who understands the club's history. The days when that sort of thing happened are well over. Instead, it'll be a dodgy billionaire from a corrupt country. Or, at best, a hedge fund from the US. And if the fans think the new owners will care any more about THEM, then they are even more deluded than I reckoned. THAT obsessive, demented gremlin Nicola Sturgeon has been shown the door by the Supreme Court, which decided she could not hold a referendum without the PM's consent on Scotland leaving the United Kingdom. Sometimes I think it might be better if the Scots DID leave. It would save us a heap. And it would take away the point of Sturgeon's existence. CORD HELP US IT'S a terrifying thought, isn't it? If the USA wins its game against us on Friday, the Yanks are threatening to send James Corden back to us early. Yikes – please don't. Think of all we've done for you. Special Relationship and all that. Mind you, they could make it even worse – and send back Corden plus Harry and Meghan. The stakes, then, are very high indeed. And if England decide that the game ends after about an hour, much as they did against the Iranians, then things could look very dicey indeed.
