Just had to break this to the family group chat. Not planning on going home myself this year but a few other relatives in England are starting to panic that they might not be able to go home and ~~sponge off~~ visit the rest of the family over Christmas.

Didn’t they estimate how much a bridge between the ports would cost previously. I wonder how much money they are losing now if they would revisit it.

For someone working in retail, will this mean less stock coming in?
Please God…

This has been a rude reminder of how vulnerable we are to one incident in one location. If I wanted to wreck Ireland’s economy I’d just blow up port infrastructure rather than get technical with hacking stuff.

Lot of stuff going to be back logged at that port….
Just hope all the folks wanting to take a ferry home can make it back x

Currently on an eight hour ferry from Liverpool to Belfast (+the drive to Dublin) instead of the ~3 hour ferry from Holyhead to Dublin. The number of freighters on the ferry was very high, clearly many rerouted from Holyhead.

Not surprising given the scale of the damage. I don’t know why it seems to be so hush hush about it all though.
