heather millsIn what’s got to be the most impressive piece of jobsworthery this year, airport securtiy at Heathrow forced pop-divorcee and charity campaigner Heather Mills was forced to allow a guard to hold up her false leg and swab it with an explosives detector. Components in her prosthetic had apparently set off the metal detecting arch as she made for her flight to the US, so the humourless officials ran her through the search protocols with the same good grace as they would a hook handed muslim cleric. A piece of offensive over-zealousness, or good common sense? Unlikely as it is that Heather has renounced capitalism since her lucrative divorce from Sir Paul, it’s nice to see that airport security are equally officious to everyone that passes under their wand.
