Virgin Atantic Diversion to BHX due to low fuel?

Heard this from a friend at BHX today, apparently a Virgin flight diverted to Birmingham because of low fuel. Anybody know anything?

It was a diversion from manchester due to manchester being snoclo. It diverted after holding at manchester for a while. It just didnt have any more holding fuel but not below miminmum for Birmigham.

No issue really
