Keep us safe

WHAT in heaven's name is going on at Birmingham International Airport where yet another security lapse has been revealed?

Earlier this week came disturbing allegations that staff were reading, doing puzzles or even snoozing when they should have been checking bags.

Now comes revelations that 45-year-old Nick White was able to take a seven-inch knife on board a plane.

An airport spokeswoman insists that its security procedures are stringent and sniffily dismisses the passenger's behaviour as "foolish".

But as misguided as Mr White may have been, his actions represent another serious security flaw.

We have said it before. Sort it out!
