Last 2 trips to Lanzarote arriving back to Stansted not one customs officer in sight walked through the green channel both times and nothing
I remember the days when a flight from the Canary Islands landed they were out in force standing just before the channel directing you to the green and not the blue and once inside you would guarantee at least 5 or 6 passengers with their dirty washing and a stack of cigarettes towering up on the table.
