It seems that following Santa on Flightradar 24 may have caused him a problem.:-

The record shows that Santa did not take his statutory breaks as required by European Law. Unfortunately, this was not discovered until Santa had crossed the Channel, so, due to Brexit, the job was passed to The Department of Transport. The sleigh had not "pinged" any traffic cameras, so the D of T passed it onto Air Traffic Control who further passed it onto the Ministry of Defense. A couple of Eurofighters were scrambled to intercept but they were sent to the wrong location as Santa's sleigh travels much more quickly than conventional aircraft. By the time an accurate speed and location were calculated, Santa had left UK airspace, so the job is now in the hands of the US and as we know, they are late for everything!

Happy Christmas everybody. Hope for the New Year.
