Quote:
Transport Secretary Lord Adonis said in the immediate future only a small proportion of airline passengers would be selected for scanning.

In a written statement to the House of Commons, he said: "If a passenger is selected for scanning, and declines, they will not be permitted to fly."


Lord Adonis - probably shows off going through the scanner :lol:

And what's the point of 'a small proportion of passengers' being selected? :roll:

I thought the idea was that if you refused the scan you would be patted down. :?

And what are the chances of there being a rule for us and another for them. :roll:

I though you were going to be allowed to opt for a pat down search instead. :?

Apparently "they" think so too. Although I did comment on our holiday in Egypt "Tourist" sounds a bit like "Terrorist" with an Arabic accent :roll:
