So if BA's LHR T5 gets the scanners, and you can't opt out, I opt out of BA/LHR.
Sorry there is a scanner at T5 - at least there is one at South Security and has been for quite some months. As you leave the security machines area and turn left towards the escalators there is a free standing big box towards the balcony rail. This is the above scanner and I have seen PAX seemingly selected at random.
I assume there will also be one at North Security.
