    Farcical

    The security at major UK airports is getting farcical. Going out of the UK last week (prior to the bomb scare) there were 30 minute queues just to get through security. Coming back to the UK on Monday there was a 45 minute queue to get through passport control. We all know which section of the community the terrorists come from so why does the government continue to appease that community and waste time and money by putting strict checks on the whole of the UK community just in order to show fairness. The time and money would be better spent on targeting the community that the perpetrators come from. Perhaps it’s time to revoke the visas of all foreign workers from the suspect countries.

    The current situation would have been as daft as trying not to offend the Nazis during WW2.

    So you are saying what we need is a "Whites Only" channel at passport control
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

      Colour would be a bad criteria but perhaps all those with the name Mohamed maybe a good start.

      PS: If the bombing were made by the White Ku Klux Klan; It would all the whites to be checked and I would not expect Black and Asians to be checked.

            back at the height of the IRA bombing campaign i remember having to go through a 'irish only' security line at heathrow. I wasnt offended...lets face it i couldnt be because the truth was irish people WERE bombing the UK. So how come the asians dont have to now? its because the government is scared of them. No matter how bad the IRA was, we didnt go suicide bombs and usually called them in. This lot have absolutely no boundaries of what they are willing to do.

                They could provide a lane where you had to eat a bacon sarnie and drink a pint of bitter/lager. It would still be slow, but at least you wouldnt mind waiting so much.

                They are always good for a laugh. The amount of times they go off on one when they are clearly breaking one security rule or another. 5 bags as hand luggage etc
                I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                  But his mates would not!
                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!
