Yes, "adherence" is a legal requirement. However, irrespective of the "same very strict" CAA rules, if you've transited various UK airports, you'll be aware their actual
interpretation might frequently be a different matter.
As a very simple example, removal of shoes & belts. Sometimes it's necessary, other times it's not. The same shoes, the same belt and quite often, through the same airport! Within just the past few months, I've experienced that from STN, GLA and LHR.
