Israel’s Ben-Gurion Airport, widely considered to be the
safest in the world, uses a sophisticated passenger screening system headed by
college graduates who coolly screen travelers for “micro-expressions” which may
hint at nefarious intent – by contrast, the U.K. Border Agency (and the TSA in
America, for that matter) employs a network of po-faced ungulates still
seething over not being invited to prom.
So don’t take it personally when, upon your arrival in England, the U.K.
Border Agency treats you like you’ve just arrived from Malawi with several
sticks of T.N.T., a pound of cocaine and eight undocumented immigrants concealed
somewhere on your person. Or like you're Madonna.
