Heathrow in half term chaos as flights cancelled and passengers stranded on runway

A 'technical issue' with the British Airways boarding system this afternoon left people reportedly stranded on the runway with no explanation of when they would be allowed to enter the airport.

Others have also reported cancellations due to the fault, which is said to have left the airline's computer system unable to 'see' which planes had landed.
