    LHR

    Airplane landed late so missed my bus, snow my arse - cancelled airplanes but super massive queue at the passport control!!!

    Last trains canned - had to enjoy my stay at Euston's Travelodge, last room in the hotel apparently for £82 - saw note on the wall there: Wilmslow was here 2012.

        Came back from the US last year, 2 hour turn around to get my connection "no probs" I thought, spent 3 hours in a snaking queue to get my bag searched multiple times.

          They should consider doing a Boris Island.

          Britain is strangled by having such a narrow corridor to the EU for trade and what connections they have are fairly poor. Heathrow and Gatwick just cannot cope.

            Actually it's quite good. Tends to take 10 minutes max to pass through security etc to get inside. Normally 20 minutes to come out. But I do have priority checking / luggage so can queue jump.

                It can be very annoying. Something similar happened to me, luckily I was able to take a taxi, mere £111.
                If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.
