I would argue that given the fact that all passenger lists are supplied to UK border in advance and the fact that ALL EU citizens are legally entitled to enter unhindered (Unless there is a warrant out for them !) the UK Border are acting illogically checking every passport whether we are a Schengen signatory or not.
This is pure right wing politically xenophobia and pandering to the red top papers.
You are so right! Unfortunately since our elected representatives take their policy lead from the Daily Mail, Express, Sun and Telegraph rather than from any common sense analysis nothing's going to change any time soon.
