HZ123 get real.....there again with an HZ handle are you from Saudi?
These people are trying to get to work to earn an honest crust of bread in an industry we used to enjoy working in. Now it has been taken over by officous prick$ who do not have aviation in their blood. They do not want to become part of a government scare campaign designed to crush any opposition to them.
What is happening about the issue that the only people in the UK who will have to hold UKID cards are Airside employees...isn't this discrimination? Introduction by the back door with out a vote in parliment and a wedge to introduce more crushing legislation? (Ahh but being Saudi you wouldn't understand democracy would you).
