Right now there is a briefing going on for journalists about what will be in tomorrow's EU ticketing #PassengerPackage, but the person who has written most about this - me - is not allowed to listen as I am not an accredited media 🎉

@d_rift I think this just means they can arbitrarily choose

Ultimately I am not that bothered. I know most of what is going to be in tomorrow's #PassengerPackage because I have the right sources

Any leaked text would give me a head start before it's published, would save me time

But if I don't get it, it's not the end of the world

And anyway it's not going to be hard to cut through the Commission spin that this will be the best thing since the Orient Express

@jon a real journalist is defined as a real journalist? Did they even look up bona fide... or do they just like to sound fancy.

That is... rather restrictive. And also rather pre-internet era in how it is defined. #PassengerPackage

@jon Well, they can mostly be relied upon to spin, not analyze.
