@SimonJonesNews Capturing biometrics for passengers in vehicles was always going to be hard. We believe there are technologies out there to help - and will continue to explore through our @border_mgmt channels. #biometrics #futureborders #ibmata
EES preparations continue to take shape at Dover - but there will no new biometric checks for car passengers from tomorrow as the French tech still isn’t ready.
Our chairman @FortinusGlobal discussing the value of #biometrics and #facialrecognition in #futureborders and #bordersecurity on @GBNEWS with @MartinDaubney today.
'This is the future, we need to use biometrics. Facial recognition is just one of the tools in the toolbox.' Former Director General of the UK Border Force Tony Smith, on the use of facial recognition software to tackle illegal migration.
The UK Together rally in London today is being sold as a march of love, unity, and hope - against racism and the far-right. But a quick look at who’s backing it reveals a very different story. 🧵
Today’s the day! Meet at 12pm on Park Lane to march together against the far right. Let’s make history.
New EU biometric border checks due to be introduced at the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel next month have been delayed again. The French authorities are having ongoing technical issues with what's called the Entry Exit system.

From 25 February, British dual nationals will no longer be allowed to enter the UK using only a foreign passport. To board a plane, they’ll need a valid British passport or a ’Certificate of Entitlement’ - costing £589. The Home Office says airlines can accept expired UK passports at their own discretion, but there’s no legal guarantee you won’t be turned away at the airport gate.
BMT 14 is here! ‣ IBMATA ibmata.org/bmt-14-is-here/
@kevin_j_foster Many thanks Kevin. Happy New Year! @FortinusGlobal
