LHR T5, the "Great and Iconic Modern Business Gateway to the United Kingdom", has 3 e-passport gates … whereas Grockle-Port [sorry, SRG et al] has 6 at each Terminal.

Discuss … who should be shot for this ineptitude?

yes, yes (very much so), and how many bullets are we allowed

How many e-passport gates are in T1, 3 and 4? It's been a long time since I've ventured in to those quarters, though I will probably go through T3 next month when I give SAS a go on my most frequented route.
