Another Goverment security blunder.

[anotheoldgit]

Hijackers stole thousands of blank British passports worth �2.5million when a delivery driver pulled up outside a shop to buy some chocolate and a paper.

What a cavalier attitude to take, when in charge of a cargo worth �2.5million.

This driver and his vehicle should have been subjected to being timed out on departure, and timed back in on arrival.

The vehicle should have also been escorted on it's journey by police outriders, after all aren't certain V.I.Ps.

maybe they should have kept the unusable bit quiet, ie the chips..Then as and when they were used at passport controls they would have flagged up as stolen then the users arrested and possibly lead back to the original thieves...or is that me being to practical
