13. The wearing of metal “LEO style” badges is stopped immediately, and replaced with the screeners name and identification number that is plainly visible.
4) +1 Flying out of LHR yesterday morning, all I had to do was take off my belt, and coat, and I walked through the WTMD. No stupid shoe carnival


7) Again, flying out of LHR, the only people that checked my passport were the UA agents, and the lady who scanned my passport before I approached the UA counter. Nobody else asked to see my passport, except at the gate. Supposedly, I could have gone through security without it..

13) In London, they do not wear blue uniforms and tin badges. They had on more professional attire, and we not barking orders.
