I might be being a bit slow here but whats your reason for post?

You'd rather not have the scanner because it doesn't work?
Secondly, why do you care?

There was an item on Radio 5 news last night (caught it driving to the gym).
The woman on there from Heathrow (and I think Manchester scanners are the same) said they just beep at random intervals and whoever's going through it at the time gets a full detailed search.

So sounds like to me they don't really work then if there's this random element.

A bit like the fake bomb detectors

I imagine he posted it because its yet another invasion of privacy the government are bring in on a knee jerk reaction due to the detroit xmas bombing thing.

It's been said several time the scanner wouldn't have detected that bomb, yet Gordon Brown time and again has said as a reaction to that most recent plane bombing attempt; he's bringing in these scanners.

Yes that's exactly what happens, but only if you refuse a pat down or they have reasonable suspicion that you're concealing something somewhere intimate.

Itchy said he was made to stand in his boxers at the security gate which is obviously never going to happen.
