Dara expressed his anger, taking to Twitter saying: "Hey Dublin Airport, any chance you could finally get these working? It might take the pressure off the ONE customs officer manning the EU/UK desk today."

Yesterday annoyed passengers slammed the scenes as a "hot mess" and a "health and safety issue" as queues reached as far as the short term car park.
One passenger claimed it took her two hours to get to her gate.
She said: "I have global entry … that didn’t matter. Was almost 1.5 hours before we even got to that point. Everyone at that airport was saying it was unprecedented.
"No idea what was up but maybe the worst airport experience I’ve ever had? And that’s saying a lot!"
A third said: "It’s crazy queues from the car park to get through security and people checking in downstairs can’t get upstairs."
When asked about the reported delays at the airport today, Graeme McQueen, daa Media Relations Manager told Dublin Live: "It's another busy Sunday at Dublin Airport, but queues are moving well at security screening with pass-through times this afternoon currently under 30 minutes in both terminals.
"We thank passengers for continuing to work with us as we move further into the busy summer season and remind anyone travelling in the days and weeks ahead to arrive at the airport in plenty of time ahead of their flight.
"Our recommendation remains to arrive at the airport up to two and a half hours before a short-haul flight and up to three and a half hours prior to a long-haul flight. Where possible, passengers should also look to check-in online in advance of travelling to the airport."
