Shed, you're only partly correct. You do not have to go through a full security search when arriving on a BA domestic with an onward connection in T5. You get off the domestic flight, have an id check then head up the escalators straight in to departures.

Shed, if you are connecting from one UK DfT regulated major airport to another, you don't need to reclear security. Exceptions apply when flying in from certain minor airports with no xray on site obviously.
As you are well aware, Heathrow don't make the rules.

What's the procedure on return to T5 International to connect with an onward domestic from T5?
My recollection from 3 years ago was that on arrival at T5, we went through Passport Control (bags were ticketed through to MAN) but then had to join a long queue for security despite the check in the US. Has that changed?

All international arrivals need to reclear security, no exceptions.
Shed if you're going T5 domestic to T3 international connection it may be the case that you end up sharing the transfer bus with others who have not been cleared to DfT standards and hence will be recleared at T3 security again.
There's no sterile transfer route from T5 domestic to the other terminals, it might be that.

This is a UK Foreign Office (not aviation) decision. There are other countries where they accept inbound arrivals from certain other countries, like the USA, to be adequately secure. The Foreign Office however feel that to give this credence to some countries but not others would offend the more touchy diplomats from certain places asking for this dispensation and being told "No", so the easiest solution for them was to have nowhere regarded as acceptable, and so to re-screen everyone other than those from domestics.

If he means controllers then it's a very emotive subject.
Unfortunately there is a gap between Swanwick/Heathrow and the old Manchester and Prestwick centre.
It's ok though they deserve it!

What do you mean "BHX fights its corner"? What does BHX gain by stopping LHR expand? Seriously, because American Airlines just walked away from there for the second time. Perhaps they were making too much money? What's the real world gain?
MPs won't be "unaware" as it will come up in a heated debate and a decision will be made afterwards. The local region will benefit from an expanded LHR, an expanded BHX clearly has no traction in some markets.

Channel 4 News reported that a document carried on the London Underground by a civil servant was filmed by another passenger.
It discussed the "potential waiving of collective responsibility" ahead of a decision on airport capacity. The government has said it will make a decision on Heathrow "in due course".
The document photographed on the Underground was a printout of an email to Sue Gray, the director general of the Cabinet Office's propriety and ethics team.
It states that lawyers and members of the Cabinet Office's economic and domestic affairs secretariat "are seeking specific input from us on how to handle potential waiving of collective responsibility".
The document suggests that "one route for waiving collective responsibility would be a free..." with the next word hidden by the thumb of the woman holding it. The sentence continues "... allowing ministers to speak against the government's position in the House".
looks like a free vote to get them off the LHR hook..................

Absolutely staggering that a government refuses to take a considered stance on something that is so critical a part of national infrastructure. A free vote is a cowards way out. This is something that the government should back, put in place generous compensation for the residents who will lose their homes, and get on with it. We're becoming a laughing stock...
Yep...Yes Minister sprung to mind too!
