        .@flcro @DHardieTweets So @BBCBreaking did you start out as a propagandist or have you been corrupted by system? Responding to incentives?

        @BBCBreaking @BBCDavidMiller Very negative way to phrase it. Why not open “more than a week earlier than planned”

        @BBCBreaking What? Nothing positive or cheery to say about the brilliant job done by all concerned to re-open well ahead of schedule?
