TERROR LEVEL RAISED TO CRITICAL AT BRITAIN'S AIRPORTS

There was chaos at Britain’s airports yesterday after it was revealed that British Intelligence had foiled a terrorist plot to cause “mass murder on an unimaginable scale” by blowing up at least ten planes on route to American cities. Many British and foreign flight operators cancelled flights, leaving tens of thousands of passengers stranded. The terror level at Britain’s airports has now been raised to critical and security measures tightened. Long queues formed at the nation’s airports as all passengers were hand searched and their footwear and anything they were carrying was x rayed and screened. Many outbound and inbound flights have been cancelled and passengers are not allowed hand baggage, apart from critical items which must be placed in a clear plastic bag. Those travelling with babies are required to taste the contents of baby’s milk bottles, before being allowed to take them on board. Twenty four people have now been arrested over the terrorist plot, which involved smuggling liquid explosives in hand luggage and detonating them.
