When going through the Concorde Hse security point at LGW I've also noticed that there now appears to be a security dept "suit" in residence throughout the day. Whether he/she is an observer or enforcer I'm not sure because they don't seem to do or say much. I'd like to think that they are ensuring security staff are playing by the same rules that we are but who knows.
Anyone else noticed that the "shoe exemption" cards have disappeared too? Obviously the shoes that I wear were considered unsafe so they were X-rayed, fair enough. Then they were deemed safe again, I was given a card telling me as much and could keep them on through security, great. Now they're not safe again and have to be X-rayed once more, strange..........
