I must remember next time I have to remove my shoes and belt and see bins full of liquid bottles confiscated from passengers and listen to announcements about unattended baggage in airports and see regular patrols by armed police that all these are a complete waste of time.

I mean, why do these terrorist even bother going to the extent of trying to conceal explosives in their shoes and underpants or bottles of drink in their luggage if they're going to be caught by covert security they'll likely never see.

I've never read such utter bollocks in my life.

The drama is a bit over the top!
