Captain Smithy needs to think a bit wider. As wise heads have pointed out it is unlikley that Graylings bright idea will have much serious impact, it merely reflects a European Directive and proportionate and practicable security is the key phrase. That directive is in force and being reviewed by a number of airports.
Please don't forget that we're in a mess because Gordo stole our pension funds and squandered money saving £6 billion in the bloated public sector should be a breeze without any impact on important things like health, education and defence. To give you an idea of his brilliance in 2000 when he was still enjoying the Tory legacy, we had a £16bn positive in flow to the treasury and economic growth around 3.5%, by 2007 that had become a public borrowing requirement of £33bn a year and a growth rate of 2.3% which is why when we hit the banking crisis and the recession (despite the fact that Gordo pointed out he'd abolished boom and bust) we were already in the poo.
Gordo's ignorance is exceeded only by arrogance.
That said I'm as nervous about career politicians of any hue as anybody else, but I shall at least try to give the Tories a shot it. If I thought they could form a government I'd give the Lib Dems a go and for me a Tory lib dem coalition would have a lot of merit.
Labour just lacks all credibility now and must go.
