Thanks for the advice, applehead.
You're right, I should and will write to the Minister. However, it may surprise you to learn that Ministers take advice from their bureacrats when they make decisions like this. That's part of what their Departments are there for.
Furthemore, the security of my aircraft has always been perfectly satisfactory, thanks very much. It's older than I am and it hasn't been stolen yet. I don't need to spend anything on more locks, which I then have to cart around with me wherever I go.
And thanks, I have a life. What I don't require is it being needlessly interfered with by a bunch of pencil-pushers operating out of an ivory tower.
