Eurostar spikes e-Borders

Hurrah for plucky little Eurostar.

This from Chris Williams over at the The Register...

Cross-Channel train operator Eurostar says it will be unable to co-operate with plans to check everyone entering the UK against crime, terror and immigration watchlists, dealing a major blow to the government's £750m e-Borders programme.

Another blow for civil liberties struck by the railways!

Poor old Richard Brown - what's the betting that First Secretary Mandy knows where he lives.
