Dominic Raab's bodyguard 'left gun on plane'

6 hours ago

Dominic Raab's bodyguard has been "removed from operational duties" after allegedly leaving his gun on a plane at Heathrow.

A cleaner is reported to have found the loaded Glock 19 pistol in its holster on a seat on the United Airlines flight after it landed in London on Friday.

The foreign secretary had been in Washington DC to speak to US politicians about Brexit.

Scotland Yard said an internal investigation was taking place.

1. What's he doing with a loaded gun on a plane in the first place??? WTF

The problem is more than a boneheaded bodyguard.

3. A handgun?

And a Glock 19? That's a prohibited weapon under UK law (handgun and one that is cartridge loaded). Given that the bodyguard was a police officer I can understand why the bodyguard had it - but be thankful a cleaner found it and handed it in.
