What else did British authorities expect to happen, when they decided to allow people wearing full body masks to go through airport security unchecked?
Police killer suspect fled Britain in a veil.
A man who was being hunted for the murder of a policewoman is understood to have escaped from Britain by disguising himself as a veiled Muslim woman.
Mustaf Jama, a prime suspect in the fatal shooting of PC Sharon Beshenivsky, assumed his sister’s identity — wearing the niqab and using her passport — to evade supposedly stringent checks at Heathrow, according to police sources.
The use of the niqab, which leaves only a narrow slit for the eyes, highlights flaws in British airport security. At the time, Jama was Britain’s most wanted man, while Heathrow was on a heightened state of alert after the 7/7 terrorist atrocities in London five months previously. The Times has learnt that British immigration officers rarely carry out a visual check to match a passport photograph with a departing female passenger’s veiled face.
Details of Jama’s disguise emerged yesterday as his younger brother, Yusuf, awaited a life sentence for the murder of the police officer, who died during an armed robbery at a Bradford travel agency in November last year.
Detectives believe that Jama, 26, was allowed to board an international flight from Heathrow because no attempt was made to uncover his face.

Ridiculous.
But I think that nearly all of the heightened security measures are worse than a waste of time: they represent a victory for the muslim crusaders. Here in addition to all the anti-taliban nonsense, they permit humans dressed in those silly, oppressive, women-hating costumes to go absolutely unchecked. Showing ID face-to-face is one of the few sensible security measures (at least for leaving the country).
Thus the muslim crusaders win on both sides: they trick stupid westerners into paying their time and money for a bunch of worthless security checks, then manage to get one portion of their midaevil cult a total pass from any checks at all.
