Snow

In other countries people use winter tyres and carry snow chains.

Here we fit shite Chinese ditch finders and whinge when the council don’t throw tons of corrosive shite all over the roads because we can’t be arsed using the right equipment for the weather conditions.
Mrs Prague can't get her head round not having winter tyres here

We do sometimes drive to over there via the chunnel in winter so we do have them
 
Why weren't there any warnings ?
It's scandalous that in this day and age no one warns an airport, from say Wednesday onwards, that it will snow on Sunday.
The snow, all 1/8 of an inch of it will be here for hours, we simply cannot cope. What are the government doing about it ?

The problem with this country is any bad weather it's do next to nought! Because it will be gone in a few days or so! Just like the floods that there is a lot more of now and more frequent, all they do is put temporary things into place like pumps barriers! There is no clear thinking in government for the last 30+ years! It's all about short term with it all!

Joking apart, the cabin crew were briefed about the possibility of being diverted elsewhere when they were in Cancun, the two flights following them were sent to Ireland. Manchester airport is rated poor for a reason.
