Security nonsense
Passing through security at Gatwick airport this morning and there’s a sign showing forbidden items. It includes razor blades. By the x-ray machine there’s a bucket where people leave behind their forbidden items – there are plenty of safety razors in there.
Past security, airside and there’s a Boots. And they sell razor blades. Making a mockery of the security policy.
Last week I flew out of Puerto Rico. Upon arrival I was asked to take my bag to security for screening. After the security screening I was given my bag back to take to the counter (20 yards away) and check. Good thing no one could possibly be smart enough to have their bag screened then put something in it.
Boots officials will make a report to the airport security for any person of Asian or African origin purchasing razor blades.
