If you’re a UK citizen and planning to fly to Scotland, you might have to show your passport to get there.  Under new terrorism laws, the police want all British citizens to show their passports before entering Scotland.

The move emerged after five Tory front bench MPs, including Chris Grayling, the shadow home secretary, were among travellers ordered to show their passports when they arrived at Prestwick Airport on Wednesday.

Mr Grayling accused police of abusing powers designed to combat terrorists and warned it was “mission creep”.

He said: “”It is utterly and completely unacceptable for any police force to be doing routine identity checks on passengers travelling within the UK.

Yes, we know it’s unacceptable and we’ve been telling you for quite some time that this was going to happen, but MPs live in their own little worlds where this sort of thing would never happen to them.

“Acting like this simply undermines the credibility of our security legislation and will heighten concerns about civil liberties.”

Yeah, we told you this too, but you didn’t listen then either.

How can you get around this idiotic law?  That’s right, drive or take the train.  That is, until the police start enforcing this idea at train stations and the border between England and Scotland.
