The item was "voluntarily abbandoned" at BAA Security. (Its voluntary, as in you don't have to give it up, but if you choose not to, the airport chooses to not allow you to enter the Restricted Zone)
UK Government regs prohibit liquids, creams and gels - basically anything runny, gooie or sticky, unless in a container less than 100ml.
These items are all destroyed.
