UK to get highly personal data on Brits

Nope not a misprint, the UK is joining the "Coalition of the W*nk*rs" with a new border control scheme which will require airlines & ferry companies to submit up to 50 items of data on each passenger between 24 and 48 hours before departure to AND from the UK.

Wonder how they are going to handle crossing the land border between Northern Ireland & the Republic of Ireland - or people going to/from the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man or people who just decide to get a ferry to France to pick up some booze?
