I just heard that America is sending us a load of Air Marshalls to help us in the security of our airlines. Please Mr Blair send them back home. The last thing we need is a load of armed trigger-happy Yanks flying about in our Airplanes.

Jim now really do you think Blair would have the guts to tell Bush to take them back??? I think not. When are they going to have a vote of no confidence in Blair? xxhugxx

I agree with you Jim, we can find our own marshals, who will do a good job, if not better. Sunny

Bit worrying isn't it Jim, don't think I like the sound of this at all!! Nanna-M :(

Blair's on holiday - Prescott's in charge!!!

could it be just to air marshall thier own flights? air america?? surely not our bmi's eastjet, monarch birtish airways? surely no?

Oh, now our forces are inadequate in our own country........why don't we just lie down and roll over.......

We dont need them!!! we have the best security going!! The americans could learn a thing or two from us!!

I wonder who they would be? Gene Autry,Matt Dillon,The Lone Ranger,The Cisco Kid? Better still,Why not our very own Chipolatta Kid?He,d frighten the Bl***y life out of any Miscreant. Hal.

Hal your so funny. catherine xx

Oh dear God - please no - with all due respect to our american cousins (and we have some) they have always been gung ho and cause more trouble than enough. They have Blair over that way already - why don't we send Prescott too! I am sure that would leave some sense in the Cabinet - surely? Please! Ann

Oh Hal, you've taken the sting out of the tail.....thanks......

No Ann........didn't you see the other day.......Prescott had given away his present of a cowboy outfit.......

Oh Hal you 4got............ The milkybar Kid!!!

OMG Jim you do'nt need them, hope if they do send them they stay on their own airlines. We are booked on a flight to Gatwick on Saturday, what do you think our chances are ? Ann

OMG does this mean we will have GI's roaming our Towns and Villages..................................

Deborah, no, I did,nt forget,that was for later and it involved'Chocolate' and things that could be done with it to 'Gum up the Works of the Marshals' Which I,m sure you Ladies would Enjoy,because some of them are big strapping Lads. Hal. :o))))))>

Too right they tend to shot our innocent men not the bad ones, look what happened in Iraq. Debbie

oh Hal that made me laugh!!! Getting worried though with Prescott in charge, god help us all!!! Where's me tin hat........ Nanna-M :))

Ann, From what they are saying on the News at present the delays are going to carry on for several days. However, as long as there is no problem at your end, there should be little effect on incoming passengers, it is those leaving who are having to suffer the security checks.
