I heartily agree that security at EGCC is grossly overstaffed and incompetent.. .. .I've just returned from a holiday near Malaga, and on the outbound leg the two women near the X-ray machine were much more interested in their own personal gossip. I had to ASK to get my keys and mobile phone back from the machine.. .. .It's doubtful if they would have spotted much in hand baggage on that day, judging from their level of concentration.. .. .I did contemplate writing to MA plc about this, but the letter would just go in the nearest bin in the thickly carpeted admin offices !
