Bruce "Die Hard" Willis refused to fly for a while, too. Easy to confuse the actor and their role, or the author and their characters, I know, but a tad ironic, don't you think?

The BBC are in search of a villain, the terrorists are not enough, and they have decided the Belgian/French police and security are to blame for the Brussels bombings.
They were leading the news this morning with a story about how the terrorist picked up last week was shown photographs of, among many others, the two brothers who a week later would carry out the suicide bombings and, wait for it, the man said, 'Na mate, never seen them two geezers before, honest'.

Gene Hunt would have sorted out that scrote, make no mistake.
The BBC then went to Belgium where they interviewed a Belgian who is ex-police and is now a security consultant. It was put to him how fucking incompetent you Johnny Foriegners are.
