It has been like this since it was opened, 4 years ago.
So not having my hopes up for fixing the problems.

Today prio screening had longer queue and I asked the agent to redirect to the pleb side ”no queue there”. He didnt budge.
And again bag to secondary whereupon the officer just gave it after looking in the picture.

Trying positiveness, yes I can find one element and that is, you dont nneed to wait outside in cold like in Lappish airports sometimes.

Try Manchester, UK. It’s infamous for security
