UK Border

The London Olympic countdown has started, but Heathrow border seems a bit confused. It is said that Heathrow will get more border control staff during the Olympics and all passport control desks to be manned at peak times. Now, all border security checks were in place.

Heathrow Airport is one of the busiest hubs and also famous for long queues at the border control. There are still concerns about UK Boarder's sluggish response during the Olympics. It's a good to be absorbed in immigration checks, but I've wondered why they don't keep all desks open even if border control is always slow. Sometimes, people who guide passengers into control desks are talking as well. Is this a problem only during the Olympic games?

Immigration minister; Damian Green indicated his desire to introduce separate lanes for passengers arriving from the US, Japan, New Zealand and Australia as low-risk countries. It's a sort of "desperate" measure to make an improvement, but I think it has been pushed to the point of discrimination.

Not only the UK Border, but also the main M4 motorway link between central London and Heathrow Airport had been closed after a crack was found. Some problems actually have surfaced at the last moment. I wish everything will go well smoothly and safely.
