I take what you are saying Lockerbie and 9/11 were terrible attrocities and sensible moves need to be made to ensure that neither of those occur again.

But please do not loose the reason for the start of this thread. That was the fact that Lord Carlisle is now showing concern over a Cessna 172 taking off out of a farmers field as a weapon of mass destruction. Hardly a fully loaded 747 and the creation of 3000 extra jobs for some sort of border control When our borders have been open to anyone who cares to make a home here.
The Government dont even have a clue who has settled here.

The fact that The London tube has not been targeted is probably more due to luck as an equal disaster is there in the waiting with NO security checks in place to stop one and that to me is more frightening than the percieved threat of a Cessna 172 and that is where Lord Carlisle should be directing his attention and our money.
