The Fledgling Southend Airport Has Arrived!

With – what else – the first drunken Essex underclass fight and subsequent removal from the plane:
Two passengers were marched off a plane on the runway at Southend Airport after a fight broke out on board.
Police were called to the airport after reports of a dispute between two passengers on an easyJet flight. Officers drove on to the runway and boarded, to find two men, from Hornchurch, shouting and throwing insults.
Hornchurch? Wow! I was sure it’d be Basildonians…

Hornchurch is not what it used to be.

It is a shed with a few chairs in. Given how lousy air travel is these days one is unsurprised at aggro.

Sadly, virtually nowhere is... :(

Rail travel's pretty lousy too. I rather doubt the answer to that state of affairs is to start a fight with one's fellow passengers, though.
