2 Women refuse WBI in MAN

Haven't seen this on here yet.

Two women were stopped from boarding a plane at Manchester Airport after refusing to undergo a full body scan.
Good for them. Hopefully others will follow suit and force changes to the security theater.

Here's a reddit thread on the article:

It seems people are pretty unhappy about the scanners and their mandatory use.
