Tinfoil hat fitting well?Leroy Ambrose said:You people shouting 'Conspiracy theory' are nuts. The government WANT us to be scared - all the time. It suits their agenda if the plebs are worried, as it enables them to sneak through legislation that erodes our rights even further. If there truly WAS a credible threat to a plane at Gatwick on Thursday, they would have told the press the second it was released.
(You're right, of course - but then, what is the truth? Probably something hideously embarrassing rather than sinister)1 -

Don't worry folks. I can take care of that particular threat for you!IdleHans said:The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Good luck to them too......I’m not a great one for the American style litigation approach that has slowly but surely crept into our society but in some instances it is justified and in this instance it most certainly is.

The airport has spent £5m since Wednesday on new equipment and technology to prevent copycat attacks.
I’m surprised this wasn’t already in effect ... very poor in my opinion. Possibly a cost issue and they have now been embarrassed into implementation.

Well the fact that the airport has stumped up £5 million to thwart further attempts to disrupt by drones as conclusive proof and nails the lid shut on the conspiracy theories that this was something other than a drone “attack”.0

5 million in investment days before Christmas including budget approval, a procurement and sourcing process! They must use the same process that Meire uses when she interviews managers!7

Thanks to our allies in the Israeli Defence Force for the new technology2

It's also a symptom of a failure to regulate the risk - Grayling had this as a priority last summer but there was no bill - his department too busy on Brexit! The Tory press are going in particularly hard... perhaps he's a May supporter?ShootersHillGuru said:Well the fact that the airport has stumped up £5 million to thwart further attempts to disrupt by drones as conclusive proof and nails the lid shut on the conspiracy theories that this was something other than a drone “attack”.

The definition of a drone is a pilotless plane flown remotely.

Not pilotless. Three people died in that crash and the pilot went to jail for involuntary manslaughter.Addickted said:The definition of a drone is a pilotless plane flown remotely.
