Frankly a complete nonsense. An airport that has no year road scheduled services to the USA requires pre-clearance facility? This is nothing but a sop to the DUP (lets call it part of the bribe) to get them back into the Stormont assembly.

Either or the major London airports, Manchester or Edinburgh could benefit from pre-clearance before BFS.
